Beast from Haunted Cave is a 1959 horror/crime film directed by Monte Hellman and starring Michael Forest, Frank Wolff and Richard Sinatra. It was produced by Gene Corman, Roger Corman's brother.<br /><br />Plot:<br />Gangster Alexander Ward, his girl friend, Gypsy Boulet, and two henchmen come to Deadwood, South Dakota with the idea of stealing a few gold bars. They enlist the aid of a local ski instructor, Gil Jackson, and plan to use him as a guide out of the territory after the robbery. However, a blizzard forces them to take refuge in Jackson's cabin. Ward has plans to kill Jackson after they have no further use of him, but they had used an explosion in a cave to serve as a distraction during the heist, and this explosion had irritated the big spider that lived there and, sure enough, all hands have to seek refuge in the cave from the fury of the storm.<br />Credits<br />Michael Forest as Gil Jackson<br />Sheila Noonan as Gypsy Boulet<br />Frank Wolff as Alexander Ward<br />Richard Sinatra as Marty Jones<br />Wally Campo as Byron Smith<br />Linné Ahlstrand as Natalie, the barmaid<br />Chris Robinson as The Beast<br />Jaclyn Zeman as Jill Jackson<br /><br />Written by Charles B.
