This is one of my favorite old school monster movies. His splitting-in-two screams STILL give me goosebumps! Thank you for sharing. ♥️ P.S. Such a beautiful, crystal clear copy❣️
I love this movie. Specially because of Terri Zimmern. What an astonishing woman! Simply beautiful. Can't believe this is her only movie. May she rest in peace
32:42 - 34:38 gives me absolute chills it's so good! I love how it starts with the priest praying and then the poor man walks in, and sees all the statue shrines, and it's almost as if Their staring at him with a sense of damnation or sympathy, and he talks to the priest mainly because he needs somebody to talk to, someone to hopefully understand, but he fails, and he sees the Temple Guardian on a high up podium, and then the evil kicks in. I love the somewhat Demonic and ominous feeling it has!!! Awesome AWESOME movie!!!
These folks seemed a tad bit too composed and polite in the midst of such horror and mayhem and the ending melodramatic as can be. Loved it. Fun flick.
I really like this movie...it seems a bit goofy to most now ... but there's something about this movie that truly gives me the creeps! Maybe because I remember it somewhere in my 3 ,5 yr old brain...still gives me chills.
I would love to see a remake of this I don't care if it would be a B- movie and it goes straight to DVD I will be cool with that this has such a different story and an original plot line
Unless several names in the credits were 'Americanized', this is a unique production for its time, being, if it is, a collaboration between Japanese and American filmmakers. I recall seeing it in the tv guide when I was a little kid, but I've never seen it 'til now. Thanks for posting !
@@snowbunny3015 i hear that! I'm in trucking myself, i was off due to covid for a bit, got back to work and ended up with PTSD from to many close calls
I saw this movie in 1961 at a Saturday matinee. I was 7. For a week I went around the neighborhood growling and roaring saying "I'm the Manster". Scaring the littler kids. Some neighbors told my parents what I was doing and suggested I see a child psychologist. What a great movie!
A HISTORICAL NOTE HERE: this movie was made or screened in 1959, only 14 years after the War. I wonder if the Japanese villain "Robert" was based on one of the scientists who worked at the infamous Unit 731 in northeastern China, which carried out horrendous experiments on local people and prisoners-of-war. After the war, most of the Unit 731 scientists/doctors returned to Japan and worked peacefully inside the medical establishment. But they started plague epidemics in northern China that continued for some years after 1945. In general among Japanese, the principle of Omertà has operated in recalling the Unit 731 atrocities, but maybe this B or C film is an exception.

sir all that's going on in the world today with this virus they say came from china can you elaborate on the plague epidemics after 1945 and what happened there this is the first I have heard of this all we hear in the west is what happened to the jews in ww2 they waged a terrible war against china I know that they were no better than the gestapo maybe this can shed some light on the virus of to day ????
I don't think that the coronavirus was deliberately released by a human agent. However, the plague and other diseases released by Unit 731 are estimated to have killed over 400,000 people in northern China, the epidemic continuing after 1945.
Thanks for uploading this B--movie. It's a 1950s version of a Jekyll--Hyde--meets--Frankenstein story.I love old--school sci-fi/horror movies, complete with eerie theremin score. This was an above--average thriller. 😺😺😺👍👍
This movie is a lot better than I thought it was going to be. The Japanese aspect, a lot of ideas and interesting scenes. The leading lady is more mature than the usual sort. And the leading man has a natural deep voice, unlike today's actors, who whisper and mumble to conceal their high-pitched voices.
Wow, what a great flick! How about those special effects, kiddies! Fun! And unlike many of the films of this genre and time period, it kept me interested til the end. TFS!!
Wanted to see this for years after seeing a still in a monster book as a kid.didnt dissapoint.the acting and effects were pretty good for this type of film. really enjoyed it!!
I really liked this movie. never seen it before. Splitting behind the tree is outrageous. I was sorry that the Dr's hot assistant died. Cool lab. Thank you CCC.
I was 6 years old when I saw this movie. I was inconsolably terrified! My Dad stayed up with me all night! When I saw the eye on the shoulder, I the terror had set in. When I saw the 2nd head, that's when I lost it!
I saw this when I was a kid and remember being totally bored -- and then I saw it again a few years ago and realized there was a lot going on that had been above my head...and which made the story a lot more interesting to adult me. wsj
I first read about this movie in Famous Monsters of Filmland Magazine. A great but underrated horror movie! It also shows what happens when 0:04 American and Japanese cultures unite to make a good horror film. But I felt sorry for the mad scientist's assistant when she was thrown over the cliff near the end of the film.
Quite a dramatic opening scene. It sure didn't pull any punches. Then it continued at a good pace and didn't let up. There was even a bit of good social commentary, but not that of the plattitude at the end. Good quip early on, "Settle down like mud in a pool."
Thanks for the upload. Just a remark, I noticed the Japanese superintendent appears after stream 51:00 is more modern, not has kooky or readily accusatory "jumps on all, barking at everything and anything, a menace" as other detective characters are typically portrayed in movies of the 50s - il est plus réfléchi. One could time-scape him into this era and he'd have the soft skills to make it - yes it's only a movie. Still interesting.
the eye on shoulder and the splitting behind the tree,. the disfigured woman behind bars used to get to me as a kid, so funny now that I tried to watch it again,
Missed this one because I was on vacation with my family out of state when it hit my hometown. I didn't miss much. But then, I've seen worse from the time--MUCH WORSE!
About 10 minutes into the film the Doctor tells the Journalist about cosmic rays causing genetic mutations, affecting the evolution of life on Earth. I laughed because it seemed ridiculous but I decided to consult Google to see if I was wrong. Turns out I was wrong and the B-grade horror movie was right. Cosmic rays can have an impact on life on our planet though not nearly as dramatically as in the film.
