The Neanderthal Man
Directed by Ewald Andre Dupont
Written by Aubrey Wisberg
Jack Pollexfen
Starring Robert Shane
Joyce Terry
Richard Crane
Doris Merrick
A hunter claims to have seen a creature that resembles a Saber tooth tiger. The local Game Warden and a scientist investigate only to learn that the Saber Tooth tiger is real and that a local scientist has developed a formula that causes animals and humans to devolve, and turns himself into The Neanderthal Man!
If this movie had been made in 1963 (instead of 1953), I would say it was Way Out, Man. And that would be the best thing I could say.
‘Bummer,’ would be something else.
This is not a film that really goes anywhere. It is basically a creature feature that takes too long to show us the creature, and barely ranks as a feature. The running time is an hour and ten minutes.
The acting, scripting, directing and production values all have something in coming with the Neanderthal Man character . . . they devolved into something primitive. Well, honestly, they may have started out primitive and devolved from there.
Somehow I sat through this entire picture . . .
FINAL THOUGHTS
Not worth watching.
