“One of the zillions of 50u0026#39;s horror/sci-fi-flix this probably was (one of) the first monster movies I ever saw, I must have been around 5 years old when it was aired on Chiller Theater one Saturday night in suburban New York. I remember particularly freaking out and screaming when the giant cyclops popped up from behind a pile of boulders in a cave sometime during the film. The film left such an impression on me that certain scenes are still vivid even though itu0026#39;s been 40 years since Iu0026#39;ve seen the movie. Iu0026#39;d love to see it again and show my kids.”
