The story is entertaining too and more than adequately fills the 75 minute running time, and the director also manages to create a creepy atmosphere and a fair few scares. It's hard not to laugh at certain points during the film, but the ideas on show are mostly good and that is all you can really expect from a film like this. Norton is not held back by trying to make the film credible, and instead is given licence to fully explore the subject material. The film doesn't take itself very seriously, and this turns out to be a good thing as director Bill L. Mercer Boley and his daughter Diana as they travel across the desert, and end up finding a colony of the aforementioned Gargoyles. The film professes that Satan sent his minions, the Gargoyles, down to Earth and they have been subdued by humankind.
The film is not exactly original, although it goes about portraying its subject matter well. I have to say that I'm largely impressed with the seventies made for television horror movies that I've seen, and while Gargoyles isn't exactly a great film it has more than enough going for it to ensure that my overall opinion of these films has gone up after seeing it.
