Mesa of Lost Women (1953)


I liked the model airplane. One of the engines quits and it crashes on the Mesa in question.

They got good use out of models back then. Look at Alfred Hitchcock's The Lady Vanishes or the cabin on the snow-covered mountain in W.C. Fields' The Fatal Glass of Beer.

It wasn't that terrible. Arty in its way. With former child star and one-time lynch mob participant Jackie Coogan as a mad scientist. He creates giant spiders he controls psychically, then starts churning out spider women.

With Ed Wood regulars Mona McKinnon, Delores Fuller and narrator Lyle Talbot. With 2' 11" actor Angelo Rossitto (Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome). 

Free on Tubi. They also have the Rifftrax version.

70 minutes.  

Had this guitar music playing constantly which got really annoying.
