Gregg G. Tallas started his career working with Fritz Lang, which does not explain how his career took him to some crazy places, such as Espionage in Tangiers, Assignment Skybolt and the movie he'd make 12 years later, Cataclysm, which is, of course, "The Case of Claire Hansen" in Night Train to Terror.
So yeah. He made this bit of insanity too, which stars 1950's tabloid star Laurette Luez, who was also in D.O.A. She's Tigri in this film, one of the Amazons who hate all men. That said, they still need to kidnap them and use them to get pregnant, but otherwise, they hate the gender.
You know who wins them over? Engor.
He's played by Allan Nixon, speaking of tabloid stars. He became an informant for Confidential magazine after years of being out of control, getting arrested for drunk driving and getting in fights. And, well, pure crazy stuff. That's because in 1958, he got in a heck of a battle with his third wife Velda May Paulsen after she visited her ex-boyfriend Burt Lancaster in the hospital. He hit her, she stabbed him with the kitchen knives he gave her for Christmas. He didn't press charges, they got back together and she died before the year was over because of burns she suffered in an explosion. Nixon - a Ron Ormond star - would eventually become a writer under his own name and using the pen names Nick Allen and Don Romano for the Shaft paperbacks.
Engor is such a man here that not only does he figure out fire - screw you Prometheus - he also kills a big lizard. After that, all the ladies - who include Joan Shawlee from The Apartment and Brian Keith's life and the vamp in Singin' In the Rain Judy Landon - decide that it's time to get married.
There's also a commentator who says inane things like, "And Engor called it Firee, which was his word for Fire." He's really the best thing in this whole movie.
