Review of X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963) by Brad G — 24 Jan 2012
"Why Do You Want To See So Much?" Mad Scientist Ray Milland invents some pretty potent eye drops that empower him with X-Ray Vision. When a table of tightwad businessmen refuse to fund his research, he does it anyway thanks to some irresponsible friends and a monkey.
Of course the eye drops cause madness and murder and Milland must hide in a freakshow managed by the huckster Don Rickles. Roger Corman had directed 37 films prior to this one, and a bunch of those are better than this.
..but a bunch of those are also much worse than X. And that's where I'd rank it--The Middle. VF.
