A quiet suburb in Southern California is terrorized by a mysterious murderous monster living in a cave. As the bodies pile up -- with incriminating banana peels always near by the crime scene -- a group of teens stumble on the guilty party: a 20-million-year-old Schlockthropus, an ape-like creature with a sense of the absurd.

"I was looking for an extremely silly movie that I didn't have to pay attention to, and boy did I find it! This movie was on my list of comedy horror. I am glad I watched it, even though I knew the plot was one long joke. It surrounds the "missing link" who is loose in a Los Angeles suburb and experiences life on his own terms. After watching this, at least now I understand the reference when someone refers to something as being schlock, it means something that is completely inane, unbelievable, but still funny. 😵😂"
