Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOriginally shot in 3-D, surviving prints are only in 2-D.
- GoofsThe Gila Monster is one of very few venomous lizards in the world. It produces a moderate neuro-toxin, but no-one ever died of a Gila Monster bite per se or needed to have an amputation as suggested here. It is possible that might arise from an associated sepsis.

Featured review
Making the film must have taken great effort with location shooting in Utah. I would like seeing it in 3-D; the colour is vivid, well saturated. Director Ray Nazzaro knew his business; writer Harry Essex was not as skillful. The plot works but the dialogue often sounds silly.
The cast with beautiful Joanne Dru, her husband John Ireland, and Ron Cameron, along with excellent stock actors make watching this movie fun. You realise that actors like John Dehner, Darryl Hickman, and Stuart Randall enriched many films and television programs we enjoy.
I almost forgot about the camels while watching the movie. The hook works, I suppose, but that is not what makes it work. The fine cast, good direction, interesting photography, crisp editing, and great location do.
I enjoyed watching this movie.
