Was looking for something to watch today. Wanted something short plus something I had never seen. This came up in my YT feed and what the hell it is barely over an hour give it a watch.
Some crooks are planning on robbing a company. The plan is set of explosions in a nearby mine and while everyone is dealing with that they gonna steal the gold and haul ass on skis to a cabin out in the middle of no where.But when the explosions happen it releases a beast. Got our crooks in the cabin and the beast outside killing them off.
Simple plot. Did a bit of research and this was made in South Dakota while Roger Corman was also filming Ski Patrol Attack,a WWII movie. Using mostly the same cast and locations.
Monte Hellman directs and this is his first feature film. And even early on you can see that Monte has an eye for capturing moments. Lots of interesting angles and shots in the film. Which normally you don't see in cheap films like this.
The beast? Looks cheap but betting the budget for it was 20 bucks. What makes this film stand out rom the 100s of creature from this era.
Made cheap and it shows some this is worth seeing at least once if you got any interest in low budget horror film making.
Beast from Haunted Cave gets a C.
