★★★★★ · GREAT!!! Very underrated!!! · DoctorBotanus · 2011-02-03

The monster isn't supposed to be a vampire dinosaur or invisible dinosaur. It is prehistoric, but completely alien to science. There is some suggestion that it is the spawn of a serpent from Greek mythology but the U.S. dubbing obscures this. I think this is a cool little thriller. I especially like the part when the invisible creature has the hatchet stuck into it, floating around. I also think its funny how the inserted the unused blank title sequence in the cave back into the movie to pad the running time for U.S. TV. Its pretty weird and I'd bet that most TV stations probably cut it out…

An invisible monster is a good idea for a movie if done right. Fiend Without a Face is a great example. This one is not-- a lot of talking and very little monster-time on screen. On the other hand, it does have Ingrid Pitt and a classic Range Rover in it. Two stars.
