The Monolith Monsters
In the quiet desert town of San Angelo, California, a massive meteorite crashes and scatters hundreds of mysterious black fragments across the sand. The danger begins when a local geologist is found mysteriously petrified in his lab, alongside a massive, towering crystal structure.Local scientist Dave Miller (Grant Williams) and schoolteacher Cathy Barrett (Lola Albright) soon discover a terrifying extraterrestrial anomaly: when these silicon-based rocks come into contact with water, they absorb moisture, grow exponentially into skyscraper-sized monoliths, and crash down—shattering into thousands of new fragments that repeat the deadly cycle. Worse, anyone who touches them is slowly and painfully turned to solid stone.When a sudden desert rainstorm triggers a massive, explosive growth chain, a literal wall of crushing crystals begins marching toward the town. With traditional military weaponry completely useless against the inanimate rocks, a small band of scientists must use the scientific method to find a chemical weakness before the monoliths swallow the continent.
