(1961) Tor Johnson, Douglas Meller, Barbara Francis, Bing Stafford, Tony Cardoza, Conrad Brooks; written and directed by Coleman Francis. One of the best "bad" movies of all time, now in its original 1.85 widescreen format for the first time. Tor is a Russian scientist caught in a nuclear blast while running from spies. The radiation transforms him into a rampaging desert monster, who then terrorizes the countryside. The scene with Tor and the rabbit is indelibly burned into the history of sci-fi schlock. Some brief topless nudity is featured during the opening rape scene. Cool. From 35mm.
