The film was quite good for being a horror film, it gave suspense and mystery as to how Andre was
crushed by the press. It was good, despite the time when the film was produced, because the mutation was
realistic and "beyond it's time" quality.The film will also leave an impression to you to be cautious in
doing things, especially experiments. This film also closely represents the theme of movies of when this
film was produced. It is because of its futuristic applications like having the transporter device.
I can say the film was interesting because its approach to the story's plot was different than others
which is the flashback. Even though it is a simple plot, the story gave suspense to the viewers. This film's
plot really gave a shock to the unveiling of the reason behind Andre's death. Also, this is not quite the
usual horror stories we see today. The film gave commentary to scientists as if they were obsessed to succeed in their experiments even if it means doing it on restricted objects to test without permission. I can consider this film as a morality play because the protagonist has shown good and bad morals. The good of not giving up, and the evil of being reckless. The film's reflection on science and technology during the 1950's was something futuristic and ahead of its time. Curiosity and imagination on futuristic machines and
possibilities that the impossible would be impossible really skyrocketed upward in the 1950's.
I recommend this to viewers who want to have a taste of what is the theme of the old horror movies and for those interested. This film is not appropriate for children because of its concept and theme.
