The Killer Shrews (1959)
Dir- Ray Kellogg
A sea captain delivering supplies to an island research station finds himself trapped with some scientists and staff after a hurricane releases giant mutant shrews they developed. Unfortunately, the killer shrews are hungry, and their bite is poisonous, putting the group in danger as they run out of bullets. Directed by Ray Kellogg and starring James Best, The Killer Shrews is an independent sci-fi monster movie that features dogs dressed in long hair to look like giant shrews. The Killer Shrews was featured and mocked in It Came From Hollywood and the fourth season of Mystery Science Theater 3000, focusing on the lack of action during the first part of the movie and the silly-looking giant shrew costumes. Filmed in Texas, the movie was released with another mutant monster movie, The Giant Gila Monster.
