Synopsis

FROM ECSTASY TO AGONY!

Just a moment before, Maria had been shuddering with pleasure in the arms of her teenage lover. Now she lay frozen as she saw the bedroom wall of het cottage bulging inward, then cracking wide open.

“God Almighty!” the boy moaned, and tore himself from Maria’s arms. But he could not escape the nightmare creature coming into the room. He shrieked over and over as the giant jaws closed around his torso, snapping him in the middle as if his body was a twig.

The creature raised its head. Blood and bits of warm, wet flesh slipped from the mouth, down onto the bed and the naked girl. An overwhelming rotting odor flooded the room, and Maria began to pray as the orange-and-black creature opened its mouth to let what remained of her lover’s body slip out...to make room for her....

GILA!
IT WON’T LET YOU GO!

*****

Harkening back to the days of giant creature movies of the 1950s, a horde of giant Gila Monsters is on the loose in New Mexico, threatening every living creature in sight. Nothing and no one is safe from the ravenous creatures as they tear their way through the desert and into heavily populated areas. Can these atomically mutated creatures be stopped or is this the beginning of the end for mankind? It’s up to Chato del-Klinne and Dr. Kate Dwyer to kick the hiss out of the oversized lizards!

From the mind of Kathryn Ptacek, writing under her Les Simons pen name, comes a tale of grisly horror with man being the hunted and Mother Nature being the hunter.
