Camp value is provided by a truckload of 1950s B-movie cliches and dreadful song breaks -- "The Gila Monster Crawl" among other "rock & roll hits" -- by its lead, Don Sullivan, who through this movie rose from nothing to complete obscurity. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The desolate desert imagery combined with Jack Marshall's creepy score make for a sporadically transfixing experience. Full Review

Rating: 1/5 -- made on a shoestring budget and it shows; bad blend of teenagers, rock music and silly lizard on patently faked sets.

Has a real-life lizard (looking as disinterested as hell!) harassing scale models . . . Full Review

Product Description:

When a Texas town is threatened by a gigantic lizard, a singing and swinging teenager kick starts his friends into gear to stop the crazed beast. An enjoyable romp through 1950s science fiction drive-in cheese, the sleepy lizard wreaking havoc on miniature sets is no less terrifying than the musical numbers.
