Most definitely!
A painted paper plate hanging from a string.
If nothing else, Ed Wood was economical!

I just thought of this one..
And I dunno if it is out there but there are these helicopter explosions that also come to mind where they animate fire around them to make them look like they blew up.
I think Black Sunday has one of those. -

The Entity - 82'
is quite an effective and creepy supernatural thriller for the most part and boasts a terrific central performance from Barbara Hershey and doesn't rely on big effects to generate its shocks and scares.
The climax visual effects
trapping the entity into a optically imposed demonic iceberg
were not par for the course though. Not after comparison to the quality and top-notch for its time optical fx for
Poltergeist
around the same time.

….for me it's that scene in Jaws 3-D when the shark breaks the glass. That effect was terrible even for 1983.
My mother cracked up, pardon the pun, when she saw that. Her comment was…"It looks like concrete."

Even the director was unhappy with the spider, but there was only so much in the TV movie budget.

I couldn't find a clip but a scene from Lake Placid 2 of a crocodile destroying a boat. Saw it once years ago and i've never forgotten it because it looked hilariously bad.
Just because I'm not on THEIR side, doesn't mean I'm on YOURS.
