Movie is better than the normal giant bug attack 1950s B picture. Most memorable are the mostly top notch stop motion animation of the enormous beasts. Movie has alot of action, both small and large scale horror attacks. Film's most effective sequence is an eerie and intense scene, where our heroes are lowered into a huge volcanic cavern and get to meet the title boss monster. Demerits include a very annoying kid that keeps getting in the way, and an unnecessary love interest sub plot between Richard Denning and a cattle baroness. That said, she does live in an opulent ranch house. I was amazed at its' interior design and decor. That was a cool looking house.
