The story
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. 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.
