The Unearthly
Posted in Reviews

I watched The Unearthly yesterday, and really have a feeling of deja vu. I think I watched it a long time ago, before I decided to watch the entire series from the beginning.

Anyway, this movie had two great short films for kids, one about posture with inappropriate teacher-student contact, and one about appreciating your parents.

The Unearthly is about a doctor that is working on a miracle gland that will grant eternal life, but he just can’t get the knack of installing it into people, they end up disfigured and crazy. His friend, another doctor, “refers” patients without any family to him to further the experiments. What this doctor friend got out of the deal was unclear. One of the guests figures things out and tries to help the others escape.

I have to give this movie five empty seats to represent Tor Johnson’s classic (and stinger) line “Time for go to bed.”
