MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS
A fat refugee from the KGB is run down and mutated by an atomic explosion... becoming the beast! Then there are some people who get choked to death... a naked lady... getting choked to death... and then Tor Johnson dies. The End!
If you like cheese, this is what the world was created for. Though not as outright enjoyable as Plan 9 From Outer Space and Robot Monster, this movie is seminal for the genre. The movie was recorded without sound, so there isn't much to listen to besides fifteen lines of dubbed dialogue, a melodramatic musical score, and director, Coleman Francis, reciting some of the most blow hard narration ever written down. I think Ed Wood would be SO proud!
I suggest this film to only those without a weak heart, the sheer badness is overwhelming even in it's scant 54 minute running time. There are logical errors every where, the opening is never explained, the ending is abrupt and unconvincing, and Tor doesn't make much of an antagonist when the worst deed he does is choke people to death and slowly run after kids with a big stick. Truly hilarious, but not much else.
