"The Naked Monster" is an ultra low-budget send-up of giant monster-on-the-loose films of the 1950s. Begun as a student project in 1984 as "Attack of the B-Movie Monster," the film makers added scenes from old monster movies to make it one movie. Sci-fi in-jokes and references are too numerous to mention. It is notable primarily for its "all-star" gathering of genre film movie icons. Kenneth Tobey sends up his role in The Thing from Another World; the character names of the veteran performers all refer to their own past films. Brinke Stevens stars, with cameos from two of her fellow Scream Queens.

ynopsis

A colossal series of disasters releases a something monstrous from a glacier. Strange disappearances in a small California town attract the attention of a thick-headed sheriff (R.G. Wilson), his transparently disinterested scientist girlfriend (Brinke Stevens) and a visiting government agent (John Goodwin). They discover that a giant green monster at large, the Creaturesaurus Erectus ("He wrecked us? He nearly KILLED us!") They turn to experienced monster fighter Colonel Patrick Henrdy (Kenneth Tobey), who has been locked in a government asylum for decades. With the help of other monster experts, lots of stock footage and incredibly bad special effects, humanity fights back against this Thing from Another Time Zone.
