78 The Mad Monster ( 1942 )
George Zucco plays almost exactly the same part in this one as a mad scientist injecting his slow-witted servant ( Glenn Strange ) with wolf serum to turn him into a killing machine.
He wants revenge on the scientists who discredited him as explained in a chilling early scene where he hallucinates they're all in his cellar listening to his ravings.
Alas the film fails to live up to this excellent start and becomes slow-moving and repetitive with characters failing to see clues that are as plain as the nose on your face.
Anne Nagel ( as Lenora )
Sex : No
Death : Survives
The lovely Anne's completely wasted in this one as the doc's innocent daughter who's peripheral to the plot.
