Review of Fiend Without a Face (1958) by Martin T — 18 Oct 2009
The last ten minutes are somewhat enjoyable in that "so bad it's good" way, but the rest of it is just bad. Dumb story with gigantic plotholes, nonsense "science" that makes contemporary abominations like The Core look plausible, pathetic special effects (even for its time), limp acting, stock characters, and lousy sets.
Also, a lot of it is ripped off (poorly) from Forbidden Planet. Kind of fun, but only because it's not long enough to get unbearable.
