Ted B @Movieaddicted 4h 3.0 stars; A 1950s version of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." This version has a college professor experimenting with an ancient fish. He becomes infected and reverts to a caveman-period monster. A veteran of '50s horror flicks, Arthur Franz, played the lead role. All in all, a good movie for that era's drive-in culture. See more Daniel C. M 07/21/2024 Atomic Age sci-fi version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde from the legend himself Jack Arnold. Recommended if you liked his previous sci-fi movies. See more Chris M 03/08/2023 This is dumb even for a 1950s sci-fi horror movie. There was way to keep specimens cold, even in the 1950s. But it was a plot device for the movie. The prehistoric man effects are awful! The prehistoric dog and dragon fly on the other hand was quite impressive. I'm guessing they ate up most of the budget. There are character issues. But as really dumb drive in fair from the days of dumb drive in movies, you can do worse. It's dumb fun and worth checking out for fans of dumb drive in fare. See more Georgan G 09/19/2022 Definitely one of those old sci fi flicks that is so bad, it's good. The mask for the monster was particularly funny. See more 09/04/2017 I'm really not quite sure what I just sat through. LOL ð??? See more 09/13/2015 This film has a lot to recommend it to horror fans: itâ??s a well-done version of the archetypical Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde plot that gives us some mildly scary moments, some good lessons in how to be noble if youâ??re an accidental murderer, and possibly the first reference to gamma rays making a man more bestial and strong.
