Note that some horror collectors have questioned how this movie won ANY award, given that it isn't very good! One collector tells us "How this turkey won that award should be investigated. It had many pages of Famous Monsters of Filmland devoted to a detailed plot summary and pictures, but I was never aware that it had any substantial bookings in the NJ/NY area -- definitely none that I was aware of, as I made it a point to catch all such genre films. It likely seems a case of Forrest J. Ackerman helping someone out with free publicity for whatever reason." If anyone has more information about this award, and why it was given, please e-mail us and we will post it here! Also note that this low-budget movie was double-billed on its first release with Okefenokee, the 1959 Roul Haig swamp crime thriller ("Raw passions in the hell swamps!"; "You say it 'Oh-kee-fen-oh-kee'") starring Peter Coe, Henry Brandon, Peggy Maley, Walter Klavun, and Serena Sande. I have never seen any U.S. movie posters or lobby cards from either of these movies separately. If anyone knows of an individual initial release for either movie, please e-mail us and we will post it here. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Condition: good to very good. The title card is very good, but it has a 1" tear in the right of the top border extending into the image background. Each card has a few tack holes in the borders and a few pairs of staple holes in the left and right edges of the image. Most of the cards have minors creases and some red paint staining in the borders. Card #5 and Card #8 both have some red paint in the edges of the image and in the border art but it doesn't affect the central image. Card #2, Card #4, and Card #7 each have some red paint in the image and edges of the image that does affect the central image. Learn More about condition grades
