MAN MADE MONSTER 1941 (UNIVERSAL)

Very good Universal shocker...literally!

Lon Chaney, Jr. stars as "Dynamo" Dan, a man who performs in small local shows using electrical devices. he survives a bus crash that electrocutes everyone else and is taken under the care of a kindly doctor and his evil assistant.

Samuel Hinds is the kindly doctor and Lionel Atwill is his assistant who turns Dan into an electro monster. Anne Nagle is the daughter of Hinds who suspects Atwill and almost has the same fate as Chaney.

The movie moves along at a brisk pace and crams a lot of action and story into a mere 61 minute running time. I would Highly Recommend this thriller to anyone with an interest in Universal horror.
