Synopsis: A lake in Wyoming is believed to be connected to a subterranean world, causing occasional prehistoric organisms to wash up on its shores. A visiting researcher finds himself face-to-face with a live Elasmosaurus, which he attacks in self-defence, removing its brain, he then substitutes a human brain.
