A showman introduces a small coastal town to a unique movie experience and capitalises on the Cuban Missile crisis hysteria with a kitschy horror extravaganza combining film effects, stage props and actors in rubber suits in this salute to the B-movie.

It ain't the greatest movie, but I loved how huckster and low budget movie producer Lawrence Woolner (John Goodman) was based on William Castle.

Regardless of my minor distractions, I'd probably recommend this movie to just about anyone with an attention span and who loves movies.

Gene's little brother, Dennis, was played Jesse Soffer, who two years later would play Bobby in The Brady Bunch Movie and this film also featured cameos by William Schallert and, in the final feature length film appearance of his career, Hollywood legend Jesse White.
