    Director : Bert I. Gordon.  Stars : Sally Fraser, Roger Pace, Duncan Dean Parkin.  - TAGLINE : "The towering terror from hell!" BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA : The "beast" makeup was recycled from "The Cyclops" (1957) and was even performed by the same person, stagehand Dean Parkin. The producers decided to use the very heavy make up on Duncan Dean Parkin as a way to disguise the fact that a different actor was playing Col. Manning, especially since in a dream sequence flashing back to the original film featured Glenn Langan, the star of that film. American-International changed to title to a more dramatic-sounding "War of the Colossal Beast" and avoided mentioning in the ad campaign that it was a sequel to an earlier film.  PLOT SUMMARY : Glenn Manning, "The Amazing Colosasal Man," believed dead after falling from the Hoover Dam, reemerges in rural Mexico, brain damaged, disfigured, and very hungry.  A mysterious series of food truck robberies makes government officials doubt that the 60-foot tall Colossal Man is dead. He is discovered in a desolate mountain range in Mexico, insane and horribly disfigured. The military drugs him and transports him back to America where he promptly escapes and wreaks havoc on a city.
