Oh glorious! I remember seeing this on TNT when I was a kid (back when they still showed all those awesome 70s era monster movies). Adding to my wish list!

I can remember watching this as a kid when it originally aired on TV back in the 70's. Definitely going to have to get a copy!

It may well have been. I mainly remember how mad his mate (or whatever) got when the horny old devil started chasing that anthropologist's daughter.
