Q the Winged Serpent

This enjoyable b-grade monster movie sees a mythical, dragon-like Aztec god come to life in downtown Manhattan, picking off sunbathers from rooftops and building its nest at the top of the Chrysler building. Larry Cohen helms the film and delivers the goods: monsters, unusual settings, human sacrifices, bikini clad sunbathers, bad special effects, strangely good performances from David Carradine and Michael Moriarty. What more do you really need? It all adds up to a mostly satisfying movie of its kind.
