I dig that 1980s monster movie Q:THE WINGED SERPENT so I always wanted to check out this way older flick based on the same Aztec god-monster. In comparison this was a pretty big disappointment and even in comparison to other 40s monster flicks this one is no great shakes. For one thing the titular creature here is not very big. A monster that's just a bird that's a bit larger than your average turkey isn't exactly a terrifying sight to behold. The plot is just a retelling of the one in THE DEVIL BAT which was made by the same studio(PRC) just a few years earlier but Bela Lugosi is a lot more entertaining than George Zucco any day. I now know why this is such an obscure title.
The all-night PRC thrill show along with the original version of THE SWAMP THING!:
