'If you've never seen a movie whose title begins with the words 'attack of', preferably followed by a phrase including the word 'Creature', 'Giant', 'Monster', 'Robot' or 'Killer', stop reading here. Assuming you meet the above criteria, The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra might just come close to comedy perfection.' -The Washington Post

'a deft parody of 1950s Z-grade sci-fi and horror pics that will delight psychotronic film fans. Lost Skeleton' really knows its material. It takes true trash cinema devotion to satirise the clunky visuals, banal dialogue, logic gaps and pseudo-scientific silliness of a bygone era's schlockiest obscurities quite so accurately.' -Variety

Dr. Paul Armstrong and his wife head to a remote cottage on the trail of a meteor chock-full of rare super-element 'atmospherium'. Plans go awry with the arrival of crazed rival Dr. Fleming and interplanetary travellers Kro-Bar and Lattis. Add to the fracas a hideous mutant, the top-secret transmutaron device, an evil telepathic skull and Animala, a sexy beatnik best described by Dr. Armstrong himself: 'Part human, part four different forest animals, and she can dance! Oh, how she can dance! Like I've never seen a woman dance before!'

'a minor, perhaps even minuscule, classic.' -Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
