Wheeler, a tourist-hunter in the California High Sierras, is not believed by the patrons of Webb's Cafe when he claims to have run across a live tiger with tusks. Among the scoffers is game-warden Oakes - until he is driving home later that night and the critter hops on the hood of his car. Oakes convinces a skeptical Dr. Harkness, state university zoologist, to come to the small town to investigate. At Webb's, Harkness meets Ruth, fiancée of Prof. Groves who maintains his home and lab outside the town, and thru her meets Groves' daughter, Jan. Groves himself is down in the city, angrily trying to convince the Naturalists' Society of the truth of his theory that the size of skull and brain equate with intelligence, and therefore Neanderthal man was equal, if not superior, to Homo sapiens. He is rejected, and by the time he returns home, seems completely unhinged, rejecting his fiancée and secluding himself in his lab. There, he has developed a serum with which he is experimenting. After Harkness and Oakes kill the tiger - indeed, a sabre-toothed tiger, which vanishes when they go to Groves' for help retrieving the body - they begin hearing of a grotesque humanoid in torn clothing, which has killed a couple of local men and assaulted Nola, Webb's waitress; and join the Sheriff in attempting to solve this new mystery, which is clearly connected to Groves' experiments.

| User ReviewMike CSome may say the selling point of this movie is once noted director EA Dupont but I say it's clear significance is containing the final performance in the devastatingly short career of Tandra Quinn. Though she has exactly 0 lines of dialogue (actually, I don't recall her speaking in Mesa of Lost Women either), she makes her, uh, presence known. |
| User ReviewAllan CRobert Shayne plays a scientist who in order to prove his theory about neanderthals being equal to humans because of brain size, develops a formula that regresses his cat to a sabertooth tiger and then also regresses his housekeeper and himself into dangerous neanderthals. Near Ed Wood levels of bad acting, writing, and direction ensure. Only watch this film for camp value, and it does certainly have that. |
| User ReviewZachary MI'll be honest, I fell asleep during this and was falling in and out while watching this movie for the first time. So there where somethings I didn't get about the plot. That there was a sabretooth cat and an evil serum. I wasn't sure how much of that was real or not so I woke myself up and thought maybe fully awake the plot would make more sense. It didn't. |
| User ReviewWes SI give it this rating because it is really funny. Best special effects ever, at one point I got dizzy from laughing so hard. It definitely makes for a fun evening with a bunch of anthropologists. |
| User ReviewMichael TRobert Shayne runs around in a paper-mache head trying to scare people, and fails miserably. |
