Note that some horror collectors have questioned how this movie won ANY award, given that it isn't very good! One collector tells us "How this turkey won that award should be investigated. It had many pages of Famous Monsters of Filmland devoted to a detailed plot summary and pictures, but I was never aware that it had any substantial bookings in the NJ/NY area -- definitely none that I was aware of, as I made it a point to catch all such genre films. It likely seems a case of Forrest J. Ackerman helping someone out with free publicity for whatever reason." If anyone has more information about this award, and why it was given, please e-mail us and we will post it here! Measurements: 11" x 14"Also note that this low-budget movie was double-billed on its first release with Okefenokee, the 1959 Roul Haig swamp crime thriller ("Raw passions in the hell swamps!"; "You say it 'Oh-kee-fen-oh-kee'") starring Peter Coe, Henry Brandon, Peggy Maley, Walter Klavun, and Serena Sande.
