I saw this film late one night in the 70's as a part of a run of horror movies on British TV on a Friday evening. It sticks in my memory as fun, silly but very frightening and so typical of many movies of the same genre all vastly underrated. Atmosphere is what it captured with its mountain solitude, cloud descending down the mountain and headless climber found in abandoned hut. Alien Monster movies don't come more frightening than this! This was a simple film with a great premise, flawed but fun. Some horror movies these days need to learn from the grand masters of old especially in the skills of lighting, atmosphere and cinematography.
