The climax is a battle of the man-made mutations against the men of science taking place in the Meeting Hall.
Half baked effort by Cushing and Judd lead to disappointing results..weak story about turtle-shell creatures with elephant noses that move about sucking the bones out of island residents. This movie lacks any suspense and chills...and has a predicatable ending...a disappointment!

Saw this at the drive-in on it's first release, and still a fun flick to watch. Rubber bodies, rubber silicates and Peter Cushing make for a few unintentional smiles, some good creepy moments and good late nite fun...
