Audience Member Fast paced b&w 50's flick brewing with madness and high novelty twists, so no spoilers here. Enjoy the time machine ~ Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Woeful low-budget horror. A bonkers oil magnate (Coulouris) decides to use the skills of a head transplant surgeon to reanimate the head of Nostradamus, as you do, so that the famous French soothsayer can advise him on his stocks. Among the multitude of faults is the ludicrously poor screenplay (why does it begin in New York, where everyone speaks in clipped British accents, before moving to England, where several characters are American?), flaccid direction (Billy Wilder's brother, apparently), somnolent editing (every scene begins too early and ends too late), and mechanical acting. There's a reason why no-one knows about this tosh: a waste of celluloid. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
