Rating: 0 out of 10, The latest in my
journey through 100 bad sci fi films was really weird and that’s saying a lot.
It’s a depression era film featuring a real doctor’s experiment to revive dead
dogs. It would be hard to imagine this film making it beyond a bar room joke
nowadays but in the 1930s this was looked upon as almost magical. The film was
every bit as bad as you can imagine with the final scenes involving the actual
experiment where a dead dog is brought back to life. Before that we have to sit
through a depression era story of a hubris fallen doctor friend of Dr Cornish,
who plays himself in the film. The friend’s son’s dog is euthanized and he
swallows his pride to bring it to Dr Cornish to revive. It was all kind of
creepy.
MVP: The dog, I guess.
