Moderately fun 1950s silliness centered around a pilot (Jeff Morrow) who spots a battleship- sized UFO sweeping around the skies. Nobody believes his assertion at first, until other pilots start experiencing the same phenomenon and then start disappearing -- turns out the culprit is actually a gigantic buzzard who's eating them (!). The flying puppet bird-monster itself looks patently ridiculous with visible strings to maneuver it, and is easily one of the poorest creatures seen in such pictures. But that can be part of the cheesy good time, and the lead actors are enjoyable because they take this all so seriously. Mara Corday is the fetching love interest. Also starring Robert Shayne and Morris Ankrum.
