MONSTER A GO GO (1965)

     MONSTER A GO GO (1965) Is one of those bad movies that make you wonder what went wrong. The story behind the film is an interesting story about low budget movies gone wrong.
    The movie was started by producer / director Bill Rebane under the title TERROR AT HALFWAY. Reband how ever ran out of money after shooting about two thirds of the movie and had to shelf it.
     Some time later film director Herschell Gordon Lewis (Best remembered for BLOOD FEAST) needed a movie to play on a double feature with one of his films.
     Gordon took the footage of Rebane's unfinished movie and spliced it all together into a short feature. He then added narration to explain what was going on and to inform the viewers about the scenes that were missing.
     The movie did not have an ending so at the end of the film the army is searching for the monster (Played by seven foot six inch tall actor Henry Hite) and the narrator tells the viewers that the monster had disappeared and that no one ever could explain what happen to it.
