Does anyone know how to do the effect in the classic film Forbidden Plant where the 'lazer' fire kind of highlights the shape of the 'monster'?

It's "Planet".

Do you have a picture?

set the monsters alpha to 0
check if its hit using a linepick or whatever
if its hit set its alpha higher for a few frames

Hey, see if you apply a spheremap to the monster, set it to alpha, the texure that is.

The glow texture. If you want a thicker glow, then bring in the orangle circle, closer to the middle :o)
