The genus Scarabaeus consists of a number of Old World dung beetle species, including the "sacred scarab beetle", Scarabaeus sacer. These beetles feed exclusively on dung, which they accomplish by rolling a piece of dung some distance from where it was deposited, and burying it in order to feed on it underground. They also prepare food for their larvae by excavating an underground chamber, and filling it with balls that have eggs laid in them. The growing larva feeds upon the dung ball, pupates, and eventually emerges as an adult.
A "scarabaeus" is also a now outdated term (OED 2) for an object in the form of a scarab beetle in art. The scarab was a popular form of amulet in Ancient Egypt, and in ancient Greek art engraved gems were often carved as scarabs on the rest of the stone behind the main flattish face, which was used for sealing documents.
A creature identified as Scarabaeus appears in "The Gold-Bug" by Edgar Allan Poe, and a poem entitled "Scarabæus sisyphus" was created by Mathilde Blind.

Plot: The movie's plot is based on the true story of a group of young computer hackers from Hannover, Germany. In the late 1980s the orphaned Karl Koch invests his heritage in a flat and a home computer. At first he dials up to bulletin boards to discuss conspiracy theories inspired by his favorite novel, R.A. Wilson's "Illuminatus", but soon he and his friend David start breaking into government and military computers. Pepe, one of Karl's rather criminal acquaintances senses that there is money in computer cracking - he travels to east Berlin and tries to contact the KGB.

Videoclipe da banda de Rock baiana, SCARABAEUS. A música se chama Homem. O videoclipe tenta traduzir a mensagem principal presente na letra da música, tratando de forma crítica, o comportamento humano, utilizando ícones mundiais, que demonstraram de forma intransigente como submeter populações inteiras a suas necessidades e desejos, e o homem comum da sociedade atual, que a cada dia perde os valores e as referências naturais.

There's a gang in every town
I say that the rules be turned around
listen here from one who knows
be fearless just like the Scorpios
pretty, look young be fearless
like the Scorpion
pretty, look young be fearless
like the Scorpion
the Scorpion
the Scorpion
black's the colour watch the claws
with nails as sharp as Diana Dors
watching us is stopping you
from cruising Ugly Avenue
pretty, look young be fearless
like the Scorpion
pretty, look young be fearless
like the Scorpion
the Scorpion
the Scorpion
and if by chance you cling to hate
just rest assured it's your mistake
hold up your head, you know I'm right
the street's the place, tonight's the night
the night
the night look pretty, look young be fearless like the Scorpion
the night look pretty have fun, don't listen when you're told there's none...
