Condition: Very good. A little tape to rear to reinforce pinholes, and a torn pinhole in the top right corner. Otherwise.......sensational !

There are B-Movie turkeys, and there are B-Movie turkeys, and this one has been gobbling for over 50 years.
Quite possibly where Tarantino and Rodriguez got the idea of "From Dusk 'til Dawn", with the violent road movie turning into a violent vampire movie half way through.
Here, the hot-rod movie becomes a monster movie, in a way that suggests that Ray Kellogg, the Director, felt that things weren't entirely working out.
But what a great poster ! VERY cult.
