Viewing Notes

The Cyclops (1957) ran on TCM’s Drive-In B-movie night. It’s another Bert Gordon flick that is essentially an alternate take on his Amazing Colossal Man, kinda like a prequel in a way but with a different origin (both films came out in the same year). I’m a fan of this and Lon Chaney Jr.
