Eegah (also known as Eegah: The Name Written in Blood) is a 1962 film starring Arch Hall, Jr., Arch Hall, Sr., Marilyn Manning and Richard Kiel in the titular role.
The film's notoriety was enhanced as a result of being featured on an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000, and was said by many to be an all time worst film and one of the films listed in Michael Medved's book The Fifty Worst Films of All Time.Synopsis
One night after shopping, Roxy Miller (Marilyn Manning) is driving to a party through the California desert when she nearly runs her car into Eegah (Richard Kiel), a giant cave man. She tells her boyfriend Tom Nelson (Arch Hall, Jr.), and her father Robert Miller (Arch Hall, Sr.) about the giant. Her father, a writer of adventure books, decides to go into the desert to look for the creature and possibly take a photograph of it. When his helicopter ride fails to show up at his designated pickup time, Tom and Roxy go looking for him.
