Das Monster von Tokio: Directed by George P. Breakston, Kenneth G. Crane. With Peter Dyneley, Jane Hylton, Tetsu Nakamura, Terri Zimmern. An American reporter in Japan is given a mysterious injection by a scientist, who turns him into a two-headed monster.

“So – Are two heads better than one? Well – I guess youu0026#39;ll just have to watch this truly zany, Sci-Fi flick called u0026quot;The Mansteru0026quot; to find out the answer to that daunting question.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eReleased in 1962 – The Manster is actually a kinda fun Mad Scientist/Horror movie to watch, providing, of course, that one doesnu0026#39;t take its goofy, far-fetched story at all seriously.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI found The Manster to be one of those outrageously low-budget, fright flicks from that particular era that was so bad that, somehow, it was actually (almost) good.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI think that it was a very wise move on the part of the director, George Breakston, to see to it that news-reporter Larry Stanfordu0026#39;s hideous, two-headed transformation was kept partially concealed within the shadows of near-darkness – Otherwise the intended horror of Larryu0026#39;s horrific predicament wouldu0026#39;ve, Iu0026#39;m sure, been completely lost by a string of unintentional laughs.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAll-in-all – Even though I would never, ever consider The Manster to be great horror, I still thought that it was a least well-worth one honest viewing.”
