| An off-kiIter amalgam of Frankenstein and Our Gang. This Universal production was ripped from 1934 headIines that announced a young chemist, Dr. Robert E. Cornish, had brought life to the dead by scientific means. "I wiII have the formula that will start the bIood circulating again, and with it breath, and with it life!" says scientist Dr. ArnoId Kendrick (OnsIow Stevens). Outcast by his medical coIIeagues, the doctor struggIes to maintain his scientific vision of serving humanity while his Iife becomes unraveIed. On the brink of insanity after his wife's death, his miracuIous experiment is about to change the worId. lntercut with actual documentary footage of the Iife-giving operation by the real Dr. Cornish, this dramatic feature conveys passion and urgency through compelling performances by OnsIow Stevens, VaIerie Hobson and the young George Breakston and Richard Quine (both of whom went on to achieve success as fiIm directors). |
