Audience Member Shocking! Came out before I was born. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/09/24 Full Review Joel P For childhood memories alone this gets five stars. Probably saw it on Creature Feature or Chiller Theatre late one Saturday night in the early seventies. SPOILER ALERT: the eye on the shoulder, the two heads and the splitting scene were seared into my memory at a very young age (6 or 7, maybe younger). Cool, shocking stuff for me. Turn your kids on to it! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/23 Full Review jeffrey r Japan was an exotic setting for a horror movie in 1959! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review william k Entertainingly silly and sleazy monster flick on a low budget. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member If I were a radio personality I'd snatch that "leave me alone" yell, the one around 44:44. I've rarely heard anyone yell "Leave me alone!" with such conviction, such passion. It really renews my faith in the acting profession. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member This was an excellent film and it really surprised me that it was included in my cheapo Mill Creek 50-pack, 'Nightmare Worlds'. The pair that played the married couple in the film were actually married in real life, and the actor who played the evil Japanese mad scientist was born, like me, Canadian. This would have scored higher for me had the mutation not given Larry a second head--they needn't have overdone it there. This was made very suspenseful, with nourish undertones, and it was a greatly enjoyable alternate take on the Jekyll and Hyde story, complete with allusions to: a) The power of alcohol in transforming one's personality and morality; b) how difficult it is in one's life to be faithful and monogamous, when life has more than its share of temptations.; and c) The power of both unconditional love in both friends and one's spouse. This certainly deserves a better rating than it tends to get in cinephilic circles, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any fans of the genre.
