1957, Movie, NR, 76 mins

A preposterous-looking giant bird from outer space terrorizes the earth and lays an egg on Quebec. Flown by visible wires, the winged horror is able to avoid detection by the use of a radar-resistant shield. But the critter can't put one over on scientists Morrow, Corday, and Ankrum (an old pro after EARTH VS. THE FLYING SAUCER and KRONOS), who send the bird to the bottom of the sea. One of the more comic moments is when the bird picks up a train in its beak and flies off with it--a cute analogy to a worm. Corday does a fine job standing around and looking sexy, especially since she was Playboy's Miss October in 1958. The "special" effects are laughable. leave a comment
