Told in flashback by police detective Dick Chasen (Showalter), the movie concerns a 72-hour period of horror for the main characters. Charles “Butcher” Benton (Chaney) is a double-crossed convicted robber and murderer who was executed in the gas chamber. His body is unlawfully sold to a scientist (Robert Shayne of Adventures of Superman fame), who plans to move his testing to human subjects. The corpse is subjected to chemical injection and massive jolts of high-frequency electricity in order to study the effect on human tissues. But Benton’s heart is restimulated and he completely revives (though rendered mute due to electrical damage to his vocal cords), immensely strong and with skin virtually impervious – even to bazooka shells.

After killing the doctor and his assistant (Joe Flynn, pre-McHale’s Navy), Benton sets out to avenge himself on his attorney and the lawyer’s henchmen who, in collusion with the attorney, had betrayed Benton in order to steal his loot. Benton had left the location of his stash to his stripper-girlfriend (Carr), who had since gone straight and begun dating the detective who brought Benton to justice, after she had rejected the lawyer’s own advances.
The story then follows Benton’s revenge on his enemies; the police who first learn of a wave of mysterious killing, then of Benton’s reanimation; and the developing relationship between the detective and the stripper. The lawyer, fearing for his life after the two henchman are murdered, confesses the plot to the police, and reveals that Benton had always used the sewer system to evade detection; and to find a hiding place for the money, as it turns out.

Tracked down by the police, Benton is weakened but not killed when he takes a direct hit in the solar plexus from a bazooka, and is disfigured by a flame thrower. He runs to a power station, where he maneuvers metal equipment and himself into position to trigger a high-voltage jolt of electricity, which kills him. At the fade-out, Chasen proposes to his girlfriend.

Dr. Laurience (Boris Karloff), a once-respectable scientist, begins to research the origins of the mind and soul in an isolated manor house, aided only by the promising surgeon Clare Wyatt (Anna Lee) and a wheelchair-using confederate named Clayton (Donald Calthrop). The scientific community rejects his theories and Laurience risks losing everything for which he has worked so obsessively. To save his research, Laurience (pronounced “Lorenz”) begins to use his discoveries in brain transference for his own nefarious purposes, replacing the mind of philanthropist Lord Haslewood (Frank Cellier) with the personality of the crippled, caustic Clayton. With Lord Haslewood’s wealth and prestige at his command, Laurience becomes an almost unstoppable mad scientist.

This era of Hammer films is frustratingly under-representated on DVD. The films are out there amongst collectors, but few of them get shared unless money changes hands. So I thought I’d post this one up complete, in the hope that other fans might do the same with rare titles in their collections, and stop those who don’t own the rights from making a fast buck. Of course, I don’t own the rights either and will remove this video should the copyright holders request so, or if the film actually comes out on DVD. Okay – anyone out there care to post up ‘Celia’, ‘Meet Simon Cherry’, ‘The Adventures Of PC49’ etc.?

Classic 1950s film-noir starring Ginger Rogers, Van Heflin and Gene Tierney.

A married Broadway producer is taken with an innocent young woman who wants to be a writer and make it on Broadway. He decides to take her under his wing, but it’s not long before the young lady is found dead in his apartment. At first thought to be a suicide, it is later discovered that she has been murdered and suspicion immediately falls on the producer. He begins his own investigation in order to clear his name and one of the first things he learns is that the young woman wasn’t quite as naive and innocent as she appeared to be.
