This is the story of a man who is hit in the head with a meteor and there after turns into a lizard like killer when the moon comes out. The authorities are stumped however the Indians may have an answer that will save the man and the mankind.
Before cable and the take over of local TV by pretend TV networks this movie was on New York in what seemed like eternal rotation. It played pretty much at anytime of day depending upon when the programmers had a whole in their schedule. I saw this more times than I care to imagine as a result. It always struck me a clunky monster film that would make more sense if there we're cuts and commercials. Well thanks to DVDs I can honestly say I wish that I had the commercials back.
Seeing this film in its uncut glory is a test of endurance. Not a whole heck of a lot happens and what does happen isn't that interesting. Sure there is a monster, but thats about all this film has going for it as people tend to talk more than they do. Its painful viewing thats sure to put you to sleep.
Unless you need to see every rubber suited monster or are in need of sleep this is a movie you can pass on.
