as Elvira used to complain on Movie Macabre back in the day, Mamie Van Doren made her look like Cher!
Quite silly but quite fun !
Arthur C. Pierce was given the task by producer Jack Broder, of writing and directing about 18 minutes of lively scenes when this film came up short and dull. So he wrote some fun comic relief bits along with the film's best (only?) action scene, which helped people stay awake in the midst of this soporific (but nicely-shot?) flick, thanks mostly to the world's slowest cinematographer, Stanley Cortez, and not so much to Mamie Van Doren.
Arthur C. Pierce was actually the producer's second choice to "pad" the film, since Pierce was exhausted and dealing with a serious heart condition, having just completed shooting WOMEN OF THE PREHISTORIC PLANET, but Broder was planning to go outside to hire another writer-director for a ridiculous amount of money. Pierce convinced him that he could do the job for a lot less cash, which he did! During shooting, Pierce had a brush with serious injury, falling from an unmanned camera crane to the studio floor during the shoot.
In all honesty, the Pierce scenes are the only ones I ever remembered and enjoy. Hoey was very early in his directing career, whereas Pierce had already directed 3 feature films, so Hoey, possibly inexperienced and out of his league, fell in love with his footage and bored us all, IMHO.
Pierce had a great talent for writing funny little character scenes (often based on scenes from his own life) that picked up otherwise sluggish pictures. So-called genre film "historians" can keep on bashing Pierce, but they're guilty of giving off more heat than light.
