War of the Colossal Beast Reviews

Silly sequel to THE AMAZING COLOSSAL MAN stars Parkin as the unfortunate Offices who was caught in an atomic blast and grew into a rampaging giant. The end of the first film saw the hapless giant shot into Boulder Dam, where he met almost certain doom. The opening of this film, however, sees Parkin very much alive, sporting a half-skull face with one eye missing, and angry at those who tried to kill him. The Army eventually captures him and holds him captive in an airplane hangar, but he escapes and starts stomping on cars and killing people again. Finally, his sister, Fraser, catches up with him, scolds him for causing so much havoc, and drives the big guy to suicide. This is not as good as the original (which wasn't all that good anyway), and its special effects are just as unspectacular.
