Review of The Creature Walks Among Us (1956) by Todd S — 18 Jun 2005

Once again, Universal Studios takes a good idea too far.

Another team travels to the Amazon to capture the creature, but they end up badly burning him. Fortunately they discover that he has lungs that he's never used, and they perform surgery to give him access to these lungs in order to save his life. Then for some reason they decide that he should also wear clothes. They take him to a private estate and lock him up like livestock, presumably to study him. Then a drama begins to play out among the humans and the creature becomes merely a supporting character.

Gill man fans might want to check this one out once, but I didn't like it and won't be watching it again.
