BEAST FROM HAUNTED CAVE
1959

PLOT:
Actually filmed in the cold, snowy Dakotas, it's the story of a gang of crooks who create a diversion by blowing up a cave, so they can rob a nearby town. In a skiing station in Dakota, a gang of criminals leaded by Alexander "Alex" Ward plans the heist of gold bars from a small bank. While the leaders girl, Gypsy Boulet, goes to an isolated cabin with ski instructor Gil Jackson, who's been hired to lead the getaway over the mountains, a time bomb explodes in a nearby cave to divert the attention of the locals which allows the gangsters to steal the gold. But the explosion releases a spider-like beast which follows the baddies to the cabin where they are trapped by a storm. How many of them will escape with their lives?
