Movies - Monster A Go Go


Monster A Go-Go is a 1965 science-fiction movie directed by Bill Rebane
(credited) and Herschell Gordon Lewis
(uncredited).

Monster A Go-Go has an unusual, perhaps even unique, production history. Director Bill Rebane
ran out of money while making the film. Lewis, who needed a second film to show with his own feature, Moonshine Mountain, bought the film, added a few extra scenes and some dialogue, and then released it, creating an odd, disjointed film with little continuity.

The plot concerns an American astronaut who mysteriously disappears from his spacecraft as it parachutes to Earth. The vanished astronaut is apparently replaced by and/or turned into a large, radioactive, humanoid monster. A team of scientists and military men attempt to capture the monster--and at one point succeed, only to have him escape again (however, both the capture and the escape are never shown, with only the narrator revealing this to us).

The film is infamous among those who have seen it for its incomprehensible "non-ending."

The movie is today most recognized for being mocked as an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 on Comedy Central.

In one scene of the movie, a fire truck is shown with the accompanying sound effect of a siren and honking horn. This exact sound effect is also used on the opening seconds of the 1968 Deep Purple song, "Hey Joe".
