Radio Blue Heart presents TALES FROM THE PUBLIC DOMAIN!
Episode 30: The Beast Of Yucca Flats!
One of the worst movies of all time! And a favorite on “Mystery Science Theater 3000”!
Directed by Coleman Francis. Tor Johnson plays a Soviet scientist who defects to America and gets chased into a nuclear test site by KGB agents. The radiation turns him into a homicidal mad man!
Contains immortal lines of narration like:
“Flag on the moon. How did it get there?”
“Boys from the city, not yet caught in the wheels of progress, feed soda pop to the thirsty pigs.”
Pure poetry!
The movie was filmed without a soundtrack. Narration, voiceovers and some sound effects were added in post-production. To avoid having to synchronize the audio to the picture, characters only speak when their faces are either off-screen or not clearly visible due to darkness or distance. Likewise, during scenes in which firearms are used, the muzzles of the guns are usually out-of-shot when the weapons are fired. Extensive narration is used in lieu of plot points being conveyed through dialogue.
This version has the full opening murder scene with a little bit of nudity.
