Movie Summary


 Movie: Eegah!: 

A teenage girl, Roxy, encounters a prehistoric caveman as she drives along in the dark in the California desert. Her father, some sort of vague anthropologisty kind of scientist guy, searches the desert for the giant caveman, Eegah, played by Richard Riel. When the father does not return, Roxy and boyfriend go looking for him. Eegah discovers Roxy alone , and kidnaps her. He takes her to his cave, where her father is already being held captive. By this time, Eegah has romantic intentions for the pseudo-lovely Roxy. Roxy, Tom, and Dad manage to escape, but Eegah hunts them down at a teen pool party and tries to take Roxy back to his cave. But there's a fatal mix of teens, dancing, fighting, and music, and Eegah ends up facedown in the pool, chock full of bullets and heartache. Watch out for snakes!

Reflections

This movie had the distinction of being just as disturbing as experiment 0424 - Manos: Hands Of Fate. The relationship between Roxy and the dad is weird and unpleasant and just not right, and there was speculation in the writing room that they were off screen lovers. One haunting nadir of this film relationship is when Dad urges Roxy not to resist Eegah's aggressive, fondling advances because Eegah may kill them both if Roxy spurns him. Add to this songs sung by Arch Hall, Jr., and you've got Manos: The Musical.
