★★★★★ · Jaws vs Charlie Tibbs · Enfer · 2010-07-10
I freaking LOVE this movie. It has everything you need for a fun time - Richard Kiel as a caveman, 60s cars and surf rock, beachy suburbia and deserts, low production values, incredibly cheesy dialogue, enormous plot holes, Arch Hall Jr and his musical entourage, obvious goofs and a classic storyline. One of the best, and I'm being serious.

Saw this film on mst3k laughing silly to the end manos hands of fate and Santa Claus conquers the Martians was more worse than this film👻

It's a weird movie. You can't stop watching it once it begins. It's bizarre, funny, and pretty much "King Kong" with a caveman. I asked a friend for a review of it. He said, "I've seen it." That's about the best way I can explain it.

EEGAH! is fun if you turn off your brain and just try to enjoy the absurdity of it. A far better performance from Arch Hall Jr. can be found in the superb thriller, THE SADIST, also available here on the Archive. Look for it.
