Ever wonder where the Creature from the Black Lagoon has been hiding out for the last 55 years? The answer: Santa Monica Blvd, from the looks of him.

Our favorite green gilled freak is back at a new attraction, decked out in glitter, dreadlocks, and a set of new dance moves in The Creature from the Black Lagoon: A Raging Rockin’ Show which opened today at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Dread Central was invited out to the premiere showing, which had original film star Julie Adams in attendance, to witness all those fierce musical numbers in action.

Below you’ll find several pictures and two videos from the event (notice the NIN and AC/DC stickers on The Creature’s cave wall) which featured flying acrobatics and a giant kaiju-style version of the monster.

We await the inevitable Dracula musical where Bela Lugosi impersonators sing Lady Marmalade.
