DESCRIPTION:
Soviet scientist's plans to defect are ruined when he is ambushed by KGB agents. The assassins pursue him across a desert wasteland where they are caught at ground zero of a nuclear test site. Although the scientist survives the bomb's detonation, atomic radiation transforms him into a monster. Skin peeling off of his afflicted body, the beast embarks on a violent rampage, killing travelers and kidnapping women. A pair of rangers track the mutant through the corpse-strewn desert with one objective - destroy the killer and end his spree.
The distinctive style of Coleman Francis is perplexing, mind-numbing and yet often (though unintentionally) creepy. Due to budgetary limitations, The Beast of Yucca Flats was filmed without sound, with narration and occasional dialogue added afterwards. Tor Johnson's trademark lumbering only adds to the absurdity and inadvertent humor.
300-pound wrestler Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka plays a noted Russian nuclear scientist chased by Commie spies into the desert where he runs right into an atomic blast and is turned into a hair-eating, club-wielding monster who befriends the local rabbits. Widely considered one of the worst movies ever made, THE BEAST OF YUCCA FLATS has brief nudity at the opening rape scene.
