1 | * BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The opening (which was added strictly for the nudity and with no narrative connection to the rest of the film), along with the whole "flag on the moon" thing.[[note]]Although the film mentions a secret Soviet moon program, a connection to a flag being on the moon is not made; the film came out years before putting a flag on the moon became a thing with the Apollo landings.[[/note]] |
2 | * FanNickname: "The Breast of Yucca Flats" for the random topless scene at the beginning. |
3 | * MemeticMutation: "Flag on the Moon. How did it get there?" |
4 | * {{Narm}}: |
5 | ** "[[CaptainObvious Touch a button. Things happen.]]" |
6 | ** "Doctors can't help her. Maybe angels, but not doctors." |
7 | ** "[[TheProblemWithPenIsland A man murdered, a woman's purse]]". |
8 | ** "Joe Dobson... caught in the wheels of progress." |
9 | * NightmareRetardant: The Beast just has Tor yelling and moaning like an angry, senile old man, and is easily outmaneuvered by two young boys. |
10 | * {{Padding}}: ''Dear god yes!'' This film just drags on and on with many scenes that often serve little-to-no purpose whatsoever. As Servo puts it: |
11 | -->''[imitating the narrator]'' "This film stops at nothing, and stays there." |
12 | * RetroactiveRecognition: The passer-by who finds Javorski's first victim and reports it to the police later had the more memorable (if not really that much more substantial) role of Cherokee Jack in ''Film/RedZoneCuba''. |
13 | * SoBadItsGood: It's Coleman Francis' [[DamnedByFaintPraise best]]. As in the only one that's watchable [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 without riffing]]. |
14 | * SpecialEffectFailure: |
15 | ** Obviously Tor Johnson couldn't actually strangle his fellow actors, but his fake strangling here is ''so'' limp it looks more like he's giving them all gentle neck massages. |
16 | ** Then there's the fact that the movie didn't prerecord any sound during filming, [[LazyArtist leaving Coleman to randomly dub in the actors' dialogue in post when their mouths were obscured from the camera]]. |
17 | -->'''Mike:''' ''[imitating the narrator]'' "[[SarcasmMode Coleman Francis solves the problem of sound sync]]." |
18 | * TearJerker: The final scene with the Beast kissing a wild bunny before dying. |
