Review of Dr. Cyclops (1940) by Dean W — 30 Apr 2009
Not a cheapie...One of the first technicolor films. For its time a marvel at special effects I'm sure. Has its shocking moments (the shooting of the mexican guy ) and suspensful moments too. The film quality kind of reminded me of the Wizard of Oz.
I have the feeling the new film code in effect at the time made them change the ending, I mean the mad doctor should have been stuck in the eye with the half-scissor thng but gets pushed down a well. would have been a good horror flick if not for the censors.
Anyway well worth a look...
