this film be truly a sorry excuse for film making . the pacing be poor and the budget must have be depressingly low and and the acting be cut rate ( that be and except for bela lugosi ) . the audio at this point in time be also terrible and with so much extra noise in the background that it sound to me a though a jet be take off for the entirety of the movie . if these thing bother you at all and do not watch this film . if you can get past this and however and you will find that the idea behind the film be a very good one . a german plastic surgeon ( bela lugosi ) be hire by the japanese to operate on several japanese agent and turn them into the likeness of upstanding american businessmen whom the japanese have kidnap and kill . after complete his work and he be betray by the japanese and thrown into prison . he later escape and travel to america to seek revenge on his patient through a series of highly publicize murder . it seem a though bela lugosi be the only decent actor in the film and and and to be honest and the rest of the actor be completely forgettable and stodgy . the lead actress end up be rather bore and stereotypical and while the police officer assign to her case be the common and chauvinistic and always correct dominant male that be find in many film of this time period . i also find that the camera work be completely uninspired and often take the exact same angle of the exact same room time and time again . after a while and this tend to drag the film down and set a very slow pace for the action and which be more or less non existent anyway . to me and the idea be a fascinate one and and with a good writer and director and script and equipment and and actor it could become an excellent film . sadly and these handicap keep the film back for now and and i can not recommend it to anyone but the most open of movie lover .
