According to Brian Albright in Regional Horror Films, quoting the AFI catalogue, the film was about an alien creature, the Astronik, coming to Earth and terrorising and killing women.[2] Two press agents specialized in erotica use the services of a female alien, referred to as the Cosmo-Cutie, to lure the monster and capture him.
The film was directed, written and produced by Boyette. A low budget production, the film was shot in and around San Antonio as most of Boyette's films.[2]
All copies of this 76-minute film and promotional materials are said to have been destroyed in a garage fire in San Antonio.[2] Only some theatrical and promotional posters have survived.[3][4]
Despite the loss of the film, TV Guide described it as "A feature that is just too brainless to be reckoned with".[5]
