Film Frenzy

Matt Brunson

A nifty blend of horror and science fiction.

As the story unreels, you realize that this is just another case of a man's manager bringing him along too fast. It is no wonder Karloff's mind cracks under the strain.

It's briskly staged with some fine camerawork, and Karloff -- turned into a radioactive killer and melting down a symbolic statue after each death on his vengeance trail against his wife and the colleagues he feels have betrayed him -- is great.

other than being lightly entertaining, this science fiction pic is no Frankenstein.
