When teenagers start disappearing from lover's lane, a tough-talking sheriff and teen hot-rodder form an unlikely alliance to find the missing youths. What they discover is a mutant Gila monster large enough to destroy the whole town. Between scenes of low-budget destruction, Chace Winstead (Don Sullivan of Teenage Zombies / Monster Of Piedras Blancas fame) sings a couple of not-bad pop songs while cowboy perennials Fred Graham and Shug Fisher make memorable appearances. The Giant Gila Monster was filmed in Texas back-to-back with another Ray Kellogg/Ken Curtis production, The Killer Shrews. ## Images ![The Giant Gila Monster [DVD] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EMe7gVD7L.jpg) ![The Giant Gila Monster [DVD] - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Ye4-1rAgS.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Better than expected *by L***O on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 28, 2022* Had an actual plot, couple side storylines and a few snickers too. Good guys, bad guys, yeah - pretty much all of it, especially for a B movie of the 60s! I was actually interested enough to stay tuned all the wat through and not perform any side functions (like was expecting).Don't let the title turn you away from this little gem. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Giant Gila Monster [DVD] *by R***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 8, 2022* The Giant Gila Monster [DVD] 1958. This is a corny movie from the Drive-In, Sock Hop Era that I always like to watch. ### ⭐⭐⭐ My Nominee For Most Boring MST3K Episode In History *by R***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 11, 2009* I have been a MST3K fan since the very early days, but "The Giant Gila Monster" is a painful experience punctuated by zingers from Joel and the Bots. The movie is a black and white film from 1959 that revolves around teenagers, the world's most incompetent sheriff, and a Mexican Beaded Lizard standing in for the Giant Gila Monster.The bulk of the film revolves around the sheriff and his peculiar co-dependency with a teenage tow truck driver. There are subplots about an angry oil tycoon, a girl with braces on her legs (which gives rise to an absolutely syrupy and nearly unbearable ukulele-intensive musical number; if you like it, don't worry, it's reprised a second time), a dance in a barn, a giant lizard, and of course, a lot of model train scenery.Despite the MST3K treatment, I found watching this to be a chore: the dialogue is so muddy, that it's frequently impossible to understand what's being said, and the picture is grainy and even more horrible than many period films of the genre.To relieve some of the pain, there is a bit of new material from Joel, Trace, and Frank in character explaining a bit about copyright law. This was by far the best part of the DVD. There are also some interviews and still photos, which are entertaining. This film is now part of the MST3K 10.2 box set, but if you order it by itself it comes clad in a cardboard DVD sleeve.While I love MST3K, this is not one of the stronger episodes, although it's nice to see a Joel episode for a change. This one gives "Hamlet" a run for its money for the title of most boring MST3K episode. I recommend it to Misties, but for everyone else, go check out another episode (any other episode) first. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/79437545-the-giant-gila-monster-dvd](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/79437545-the-giant-gila-monster-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
