This is an exceedingly grand visual and musical camp satire of the golden days of the B-movie horror and science-fiction genres.

Where did that motorcyclist come from?
I guess we'll just have to turn back.

We must have a blowout.
Damn it! I knew I should've gotten

You stay here and I'll go for help.

Maybe they have a telephone

-I'm coming with you.
Besides, the owner of that phone
might be a beautiful woman. . .
. . .and you might never
