Noted Russian nuclear scientist Joseph Javorsky (Tor Johnson) escapes to the United States with "Top Secret" Soviet documents. U.S. Army personnel accompany him to the Yucca Flats Atomic Testing Grounds, but Soviet agents are in hot pursuit! They run Javorsky's car off the road, right into the bomb testing site. During the ensuing gunfight, an H-bomb is detonated, killing everyone, except Javorsky, who is transformed into a crazed Atomic-mutated Beast on a blood-thirsty rampage!

Inspired by the Cold War, Communist infiltration of America and the constant threat of atomic attacks, this drive-in theater entertainment from the Kennedy Era stars cult favorites Tor Johnson and Conrad Brooks (PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE) and is the first film effort of producer Anthony Cardoza.
