The story

What Is Teenagers Battle the Thing About?

The premise of Teenagers Battle the Thing without spoilers.

Archaeology students discover a prehistoric creature that’s half man, half monster, portrayed with a noticeably cheap costume and a deliberately bratty attitude. Although the film was finished in 1960, it only played theatrically in the director’s hometown. It remained unseen by wider audiences until 1975, when the director repurposed its footage for the movie Curse of Bigfoot.
