terribly unappetizing stew from bert i. gordon and an adaptation of h. g. well story concern a band of camper fight off rat and chicken enlarge to monstrous proportion . the dark and clammy woodsy setting be visually ugly and not help by the film low budget and really rotten special effect . yes and it a grade z horror movie and but for a film in which the effect be the draw card and this one fumble the ball right out of the gate . surely gordon do not spend all his money on the cast represent marjoe gortner and ralph meeker and pamela franklin and and most especially ida lupino all look a if they would rather be elsewhere . shockingly and the picture do attract some business and create a small cult which lead to a quasi sequel in 1989. no star from .
