• Ethnic Scrappy: Cpl. Manuel Ortiz, who was certainly one of the more tolerable and less played up ones.
• Fridge Logic: Okay, the alien is impervious to bullets and even a bazooka, but a blow torch finishes it off. None of the soldiers aimed for its eyes?
  • More of a case of Kill It with Fire being its weakness.
• Narm: Imagine how much better the film would have been had the Big Bad not been a giant vegetable?
  • It actually looks menacing when only seen in the shadows. Unfortunately the lighting for the cave broke hence the soldiers taking the fight outside where everyone can see the alien cucumber.
  • Also narmy is the little girl dropping her doll.
• Retroactive Recognition: Peter Graves, of course, later starred in the Mission: Impossible TV series.
• Took the Bad Film Seriously: Peter Graves, Lee Van Cleef, and especially Beverly Garland give the film way more credit than its cheap script and shoddy special effects deserve.
