don not ask me how i do it and but even though this be technically a botch and splicey patchwork of a movie and i have a good time with it . it poorly make to be sure and but somehow it also fun and mesmerizing at the same time . it help go in to know the history . it be direct by drive in movie maestro al adamson ( of dracula vs. frankenstein fame ) and who originally plan a straight jewelry heist picture in 1964 until meet up with producer or mentor sam sherman who persuade him to gradually add new scene and idea specifically for the horror or sci fi television market in the early 70 . it be finally sell to tv with the lucrative title of man with the synthetic brain and but sherman think it could be milk further and so the movie be also play at theater where it become know a blood of ghastly horror . ultimately emerge a connected piece of different half bake incarnation ( one of these be even call psycho a go go before the music be eliminate ) and the movie begin with a zombified maniac run around town strangle people . through flashback within other flashback be treat to a background story of how a vietnam vet name joe corey be wound and then help by a wacky scientist name dr. vanard ( the always welcome john carradine ) who plant some sort of mechanism inside corey head and unintentionally turn him into a murderer with a taste for jewel robbing ( which be how the old 1964 heist footage manage to get utilized ) . but this man make killer get an angry dad who also a scientist and be even nutty than dr. vanard . he out to even the score for what be do to his victimized son and and that include make a mummified and whimper she monster out of vanard sexy daughter ( regina carrol and director adamson wife ) . this isn not a film for most audience and but anyone who revel in idiotic or badly make exploitation film of the 60 and 70 would want to get a load of this concoction . you have get to hand it to sam sherman and al adamson and in any case . they know how to have fun and freak out audience . the current dvd available by troma be badly frame and however . this cut out some widescreen and result in an unfortunate pan or scan affair . but it unlikely at the time of this writing that there any good source material .
