Commies made him an atomic mutant!
Narrator
A man runs, someone shoots at him.
Flag on the moon. How did it get there?
Nothing bothers some people, not even flying saucers.
Always on the prowl. Looking for something or somebody to kill. Quench the killer's thirst.
Boys from the city. Not yet caught by the whirlwind of Progress. Feed soda pop to the thirsty pigs.
Touch a button. Things happen. A scientist becomes a beast.
Twenty hours without rest and still no enemy. In the blistering desert heat, Jim and Joe plan their next attack. Find the Beast and kill him. Kill, or be killed. Man's inhumanity to man.
Joe Dobson
Well, doctors can't help her. Maybe angels, but not doctors.
