BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS, THE(1961)
In the set: 100 Greatest Terror Classics
So, the thrust of the story is that three spies
from Russia get caught in the atomoic testing
grounds in Yucca Flats!! This turns one of them
into a killing "monster"! C+
From a reviewer at IMDb.com:
The movie is not good - in fact it is pure junk.
Yet there is something strangely entertaining
about this film. IDK how a movie this junky
can entertain so well but this movie can do
that for certain viewers - including myself.
The movie is less than an hour long. In my
opinion, what was missing was a longer movie
to finish telling the story. The movie had
the potential to be better and all it really
needed was more time to complete the story
because the story was incomplete.
There is something strangely good about this
horrible film... maybe it is simply the fact
it had the potential to be better than what
it is. I liked the narration, the way the
movie was filmed, the odd characters, and
even the incomplete story.
If you are looking for a movie that is very
odd and is a bad b-rated film that is somewhat
entertaining then look no further than this
campy flick.
