The movie was directed by Sam Newfield [as Sherman Scott] from a screenplay by John T. Neville.

Plot:
Insane archaeologist Professor Andrew Forbes (George Zucco) uses an ancient beast he unearthed to kill his enemies. The creature is the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl. Slowly those who know this try to stop the maniac and his monster…
“Sure, it’s silly. But it’s also fun. The monster itself isn’t much bigger than a seagull, and it looks like a cross between a sick bat and a diseased vulture. Half the time you can barely see it, and the other half you can see the strings. The characters, plot, and the dialogue are all formula.” David Elroy Goldweber, Claws & Saucers book
