Roxy Miller heads off to meet her boyfriend Tom Nelson after he gets off work. But while driving along the highway she is startled and faints as a giant steps out in front of her car. Her father believes that this might be some type of prehistoric man living in the area of Deep Canyon. He flies out to investigate, only to be attacked and captured by the giant. When Mr Miller fails to return, Tom heads out in his hot rod to investigate with Roxy. But Roxy is captured by the giant and made a prisoner alongside her father. But there the giant, Eegah, takes a fancy to Roxy and tries to claim her as his woman. Directed by Arch Hall Sr. (under the Nicholas Merriwether pseud.), a Z epic in which an anachronistic Neanderthal falls in love in '60s California. Reputed to be one of the worst films of all time.
