There's rock and roll, hot rods, and of course, Richard Kiel as a seven-foot-tall neanderthal rampaging through the desert! This thrilling comedy follows Eegah (Richard Kiel), a prehistoric caveman who is nearly run over by Roxy Miller (Marilyn Manning) on her way to a party. Forming a romantic interest in the young beauty, Eegah holds Roxy and her father (Arch Hall Sr.) captive in his lair. It's up to local gas station attendant Tom Nelson (Arch Hall Jr.) to rescue his sweetheart from the raving brute!

​

Despite its campy prehistoric origins, the legacy of Eegah has stood the test of time. In 1993, the movie was picked up for an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988-1999), a comedy series that made playful commentary on entertainment's most-notorious B-movies, recently revived on Netflix in 2017. The episode further immortalized the film's most famous, satirical line, "Watch out for snakes," a comment noticeably dubbed during post-production. Eegah embedded itself so deeply into the culture of MST3K that the show took to the road in 2017 for a live Watch Out for Snakes Tour.
