Beasts Unleashed - The Beast With A Million Eyes / The Beast Of Hollow Mountain Limited Edition Blu-Ray (Region B) (UK)

Region Code: Region B

SYNOPSIS

The 1950s marked the golden age of the creature feature. At the height of the Atomic Age, American cinemas were flooded with tales of alien invasions, giant irradiated insects, rampaging robots, deep-sea monsters, and long-extinct dinosaurs unleashed upon the modern world.

The Beast with a Million Eyes and The Beast of Hollow Mountain stand among the most entertaining examples of this era—presented here together in the spirit of classic 1950s sci-fi double features.

In The Beast with a Million Eyes, produced and reportedly co-directed by Roger Corman, a family living on a remote California desert ranch begins to experience unsettling events after a mysterious flying object crashes nearby. As animals and people start behaving strangely, they are forced to confront an unseen, otherworldly menace.

The Beast of Hollow Mountain, based on a story by pioneering special-effects artist Willis O'Brien, follows a cowboy in Mexico who discovers his cattle are being preyed upon—not by rustlers, but by a prehistoric creature lurking in the wilderness.

Blending alien paranoia with dinosaur-driven spectacle, these two films capture the essence of 1950s genre cinema—recalling the era of drive-ins, double bills, and unrestrained monster mayhem.

Eureka Classics proudly presents both films on Blu-ray for the first time in the UK.
