A fine Indiana film in color

A choo choo train and a big lizard or two or three and an exclamation point in the title. Some 35 year old teenagers and some really good special effects make for a great movie. They could not get Matt Damon or Justin Bieber so they went with what's his name and the guy from the movie about the thing.The monster is well done with CGI or whatever. Some great old rock and roll fifties hit songs and lots of very nice vintage cars. The steam locomotive looks legit but I do not know.In one scene there is a map of where the monster might be. It has a golf club called The Legends marked on the map. If you search that it is in Indiana. The story is very lame but it remains fun until the end when a last laugh awaits the audience.Looks like the budget was under one million so they did a good job giving us a potential cult flick for pennies. It usually costs much more to make something like this.It has a jeep but it needs an airplane and maybe a military officer and a cat.

Pretty slow

I have not seen the original so I cannot speak on its accuracy, but as far as crappy monster movies go it was mediocre. The actual acting for this film was far above the average for the genre and the plot line wasn't terrible but it was hard to stay attentive. The movie was very slow and had a monster with very inconsistent ability. I would like to add that the way Gilla runs is absolutely hilarious. The story just continues to drag on with little to no action without a lot of immediate danger. Another very key flaw to this movie is the substantial lack of somewhat attractive women showing cleavage. As a major fan of the directors films this was overall a miss.
