1940美国科幻恐怖片《独眼巨人博士》由欧内斯特·B·舍德萨克导演,阿尔伯特·德科主演,影片讲述的是:
Dr Cyclops is known as one of the better early scifi films made in 39 and released in 1940 It is also in color But while the story has potential and there are some good moments this is a very confused film
The plot is simple crazy mad scientist on some remote island can shrink animals and wants to try it on humans He manages this on a scientific team that came to check things out They get angry and the crazy scientist eventually gets really angry because his new shrunken subjects wont cooperate
The thing is the film doesnt seem to know if it wants to be a thriller or a goofy movie Dr Cyclops never called that but referenced to a Cyclops after one lens in his glasses breaks looks cool in his 30s style scifi helmet as he performs experiments and can be chilling at times But there is so much Disneystyle goofy music going on that it is hard to take anything seriously The music belongs in a family comedy for the most part and is played when the shrunken people do things like try to survive and creep around the floor Add that a few of them have pretty gruesome deaths and that just adds to the confusing atmosphere
The FX arent so bad but nothing special The giant sets built are pretty impressive though There is a scene where little fires are tossed at a real crocodiles head which probably made animal activists angry
It also takes a long time for anything to really happen This movie could have been done in a nice tight halfhour Good for a viewing but you probably wont watch again The performance of the guy who plays Dr Cyclops is definitely the main attraction
