Oct 24, 2018Nostradamus’s Disembodied Head
This came out two weeks before Hammer Films had their first success with The Curse of Frankenstein. Where Hammer discovered the future of British horror, this is no more than a dreary quota quickie that has possibly the most lunatic scheme of any British horror film involving the revival of Nostradamus's severed head

Feb 1, 2014Scientist's Brain Transplanted Into a Robot Body
1950s sf film about a scientist's brain transplanted into a hulking robot body. Fairly standard plot material that is turned into something striking by director Eugene Lourie of The Beast from 20,000 Fathoms fame

Jul 18, 2013Human-Vulture Hybrid/Teleporter Accident
Possibly the most conceptually demented film to come out of the 1960s-70s Anglo-horror cycle - one part The Fly, one part a witch's retribution film about a man who transforms into a vulture creature after teleporting into his ancestor's grave whereupon he is driven to enact a centuries old curse
