Mad doctor at work in the basement.
25 August 2009
Warning: Spoilers
British horror flick that reminds me of Saturday double features as a child. Not a great movie; definitely not a bad movie. Very predictable, but fun to watch. Dr. Moran(George Coulouris)returns from South America with assurance he has found a serum to rejuvenate life. He hides a stolen flesh eating 'tree' in the basement of his mansion. There is also the native Tanga(Jimmy Vaughn)that puts women in a trance with a bongo solo. The victim is fed to the arm waving tree that is suppose to produce the essence of life. After five years or so, the mad professor becomes disillusioned with the hideous ritual.

Obviously low budgeted with just enough substance to keep you to the end. It doesn't hurt having some beautiful women in the cast. Other players: Vera Day, Peter Wayn, Joy Webster, Sara Leighton, Edward Higgins and Marpessa Dawn.
