Our hero, Matt Farrell, is sought out and unceremoniously captured by Dr. Gordon's henchmen.

Then, he's transported to the doctor's remote mansion where he decides to explore the place at night.

And, what does he discover?.. Delicious cheesecake and pastries!!

Pat Woodell plays Dr. Gordon's daughter, Neva. She finds Matt irrestible!..

Pat played Miss Thompson on THE MUNSTERS and Bodine in THE BIG DOLL HOUSE. Charles Macaulay plays Dr. Gordon, he was Clarence in THE TOWER OF LONDON, Jaris/Landru in STAR TREK and Inspector Shrink in HEAD!

John was married to Deborah (hubba hubba) Walley, played Frankie Avalon's best pal in the beach party movies and produced THE A-TEAM. He died at age 62 in 1997.

Area 51 works on it's next Republican presidential candidate...

Neva has had it with her dad's ass hole buddies and decides to let her Twilight People go!

Ken Metcalfe plays Kuzma, the Antelope Man...

Pam Grier plays Ayesa, the Panther Woman...

Kim Ramos plays Primo, the Ape Man...

And, Tony Gosalvez plays Darmo, the Bat Man. This is actually pretty funny where Darmo tries to fly for the first time, he plummets to the ground and lands flat on his face!

The doctor's men are in hot pursuit.

Kuzma's a freakin' dead shot and Ayesa just chews the Hell out of her opponents!

I like this shot because it reminds me of working in the garden!

Darmo pays the doctor a little visit.

He finally learns the finer details of flying!..

Darmo takes care of business and flys away into the sunset...
