EEGAH!.
If you think you’ve seen some weird movies here on Retrovision Internet TV. Why don’t you try this one on for size?. This is the quintessential 1950s midnight movie. Goofy 1950s teenagers find a cave man. Guess who he is? You’ll see.
Wait until you hear the song “Vicki”. It’s a classic.
Wow skippy…..
Eegah! (also known as Eegah! The Name Written in Blood) is a 1962 film starring Arch Hall Sr. as Robert Miller, Arch Hall Jr. as Tom Nelson, Richard Kiel (who portrayed the character Jaws in the James Bond films The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker) as Eegah, and Marilyn Manning as Roxy Miller.

Yeah, that is some movie huh?.
I can usually sit through any movie so long as I like at least one actor in it, but this one made it hard. It was a struggle to make it though (especially during the songs). The positive thing about the movie: the dune buggie looked cool.
Well, I guess free is too much sometimes
I like films like this sometimes, they are so bad, it’s funny.
About the dune buggy. He says he’s got water filled tires. I never heard of that. I’ve had a couple of dune buggies in my life, I wonder if that would work.
I would have edited about forty-five minutes from this film to make it flow better.
I did like the the theme of conflict between cultures.
Conflict theme between cultures? I’m not quite sure I know what you mean.
It must have been a drag being Richard Kiel(EEGAH) He played nothing but freaks. He played alien “Kanamit” in the classic Twilight Zone episode “To Serve Man”. I could be wrong but, I also think he was the alien in “The day The Earth Stood Still”.
Water filled tires?
I can see it for the back ones since the cut down car had no weight on the back and it was front engine/rear drive. Any guess what it was? An old Morris maybe?
Cool show though. I wasn’t quite sure who Eegah was until he got a shave, then I had to hit pause and go tell my wife.
You’ll probably recognize Richard Kiel by another name. (in a popular TV series)
I don’t think I would edit out 45 minutes, but the singing…yup!
I could actually take this one seriously.
It was probably done on a pretty small budget and it looked like it, but the story wasn’t all that bad. You even started to take his side in the end.
WORTH WATCHING!
Why can’t the government do something about movies like this? Maybe because the cave man sounds like congress, LOL
Usually Calcium Chloride is used in tires to give them weight. They are used in places like the Adirondack Mountains where the ice is so thick and smooth that even the snow plows have a hard time on the road.
Been years since I’ve seen a movie this bad. I LOVED IT !
No sorry i got up to the song at the pool and quit. Maybe i cant stand bad music as much as i can bad films
If there was an award ceremony for worst movies of all time, I think this one has got to be up there. I have nothing really profound to say. I guess I’m speechless. though, one thing I feel sorry about, was that eegah didn’t get laid. I do feel sorry for him on that. thanks reto for the great flicks.
“I could be wrong but, I also think he was the alien in “The day The Earth Stood Stillâ€
Nope, that was Michael Rennie.
“I swear on my Elvis Presley LP”….. ha ha ha ha
Boy ! This was bad , in an even worse than possible sort of way. Talk about having to pay your dues .
ed wood anyone?
Ahh the movie wasn’t that bad and the actng was pretty good.
I liked the dune buggy scene WEEE WEEE WEEEE! She was lovin it! EEGAHH
I guess you didn’t receive the barrel of acid I sent last year to throw this film in.
they oughta use this film instead of waterboarding. before u got thru the ‘vicki youre so icky’ song youd want the acid.
Holy moly, I can sometimes watch stupid, but this was too much for even me, I made it about 4 minuates including the 3 minuate intro. ooooow terrible…
