A Swedish American science fiction directed by Virgil W. Vogel.
An object lands in Sweden and a large, furry monster appears to kill reindeer, kidnap a girl, cause avalanches and wreck small housing structures.
The plot was full of holes and very vague about exactly what caused what to happen. The characters were shallow and stereotypical. Judging by the photography style and music, I would have placed this in the late '40s. There was a brief scene where they tried to get all artsy-fartsy with the camera by following a hammer, but it looked terrible. The young woman had very bad luck when skiing with the young man, as he snaked her in one scene and she crashed into a bush in another. The monster was actually shown decently and it looked like a man in a suit walking through slightly scaled down sets. Overall, it was shoddy workmanship on a less than interesting movie. I rate it poor. This film is only to be watched by those writing film blogs so that they can warn others away from it.
