Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Minor but efficient little chiller, with Atwill doing his usual mad scientist bit and experimenting on the hapless Chaney who, after an accident, finds he is immune to electricity. Needless to say, things get nastily out of control as Chaney goes on the rampage. Nothing special, really, although Chaney (in his first horror movie) lends a touch of pathos to his role, and John Fulton's special effects are as good as ever.Author: GA
