Movie review

From Time Out Film Guide

Before Dracula and Curse of Frankenstein made his name and put Hammer Films on the map, Fisher turned out this U-certificate adaptation of a radio play by Charles Eric Maine for the studio. Howard Duff is the US scientist accused of stashing his wife's corpse in a rocket, but the budget didn't stretch to much in the way of effects work. A decided oddity.
