Viewing Notes
The synopsis here basically lays out the entire story. Not bad for a 40s sci-fi horror experiment gone wrong then used for nefarious means flick. Also not particularly great in delivering that premise. Reminds me a little of Jack Arnold’s Monster on the Campus but not nearly as good even as schlocky as that film is.
This is another not-so-good film that has a decent premise that could be updated and remade into a better film. ~sigh~
