I remember seeing this little beauty at the Ranch Drive-In back in 1977. I believe it was the late late show that weekend. The hot babe in the short shorts always stuck out in my mind. This girl alone was worth the price of admission. Track of the Moon Beast is your typical 1970's mutant monster flick. Not bad, but not good either. Definate cheese to say the least. The creature is cool. The acting lame. But that is what B movies are all about. I do recommend this one. I won't give anything away, just in case someone reads this who hasn't seen it. This flick is available on DVD! I got my copy as part of a triple feature. Track Of The Moon Beast, Snowbeast, and Creature. All three cheesy classics on one DVD. And for the low price of $8.99! What a deal. So pop up some corn and have a good time! I gave this one 8 out of 10.
