1963 ****1/2 79 mins.
It took me over five years to find this film, and let me tell you, it was well-worth the wait. Although undeniably dated, this is a fantastic film about a doctor who tries to improve his eyesight. Instead, he develops X-ray vision. However, it begins to spiral out of his control, and the final shot of the film is one that is not likely to be forgotten. The film never loses hold of its viewer. This is a fantastic science-fiction film that I love with all my heart.
Not Rated.
