Review of The Brute Man (1946) by Tim S — 27 May 2012
There's not a whole lot about The Brute Man that makes a whole lot of sense as a plot, but it basically works itself out if you pay close enough attention. I laughed particularly hard at the newspaper intertitles that basically moved the plot along while at the same time stopped it in its tracks with headlines like "Girl Helps Police Find The Creeper!" Of course this movie was made at a time before it became an enormous cliche, particularly in cartoons, but it's still pretty funny by today's standards.
There's not a whole lot of good things to say about it. I found it mostly boring, but the Mystery Science Theater 3000 crew certainly made it a little more entertaining. Otherwise you're not missing much if you never see it in your entire life.
