utgard14 Dismal cheapie from AIP that stars a rough-looking Tom Conway as a mad scientist in the jungle using voodoo to turn women into monsters. It's a mostly dull affair with a few campy moments that are worth some laughs. But these are sadly few and far between. Most of the time it's just boring. Conway has seen better days. He looks sickly here. But he still (over)acts his pants off, which is appreciated. Marla English makes for a fun bitch; she's easily the highlight of the movie. Mike Connors is the "hero" who exists just to give the mad scientist's put-upon wife (Mary Ellen Kay) a stud to walk into the sunset with. The monster suit for the 'voodoo woman' is the same as the suit from The She-Creature with some minor changes. She-Creature is a much more fun movie, though. Also the drum beat played throughout sounds a bit like the opening to Sympathy for the Devil.
Rainey Dawn Watch this film if you want to make fun of a movie. There is a lot to make fun of here because it's a real eye-roller. Dumb looking creature with a blonde wig. WOW that's scary! Let's not forget the bad acting - in particular the dark haired female lead. This female lead is just hateful and not tough. There's more to poke fun at but that give you and idea already. It's also very boring so it will help to pass the time to make fun of the film.Why isn't this another "Voodoo Man" titled film instead of being called "Voodoo Woman"? It's a man that is using voodoo to hoodoo the islanders among others. He's a "mad scientist" trying to create a perfect indestructible race that will do his bidding. Whatever.OK this film is going in my "garbage films" list. 2/10
Uriah43 Believing that a tribe deep in the African jungle has gold a ruthless woman by the name of "Marilyn Blanchard" (Marla English) and her boyfriend "Rick Brady" (Lance Fuller) manage to manipulate a guide named "Ted Bronson" (Mike Connors) to take them to this village. What none of them realize is that there is a mad scientist named "Dr. Roland Gerard" (Tom Conway) who has been staying there and learning the black arts which he hopes to combine with western science in order to transform a female into a monster he can control with the power of his mind. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this is clearly a low-budget, grade-B film from days gone by which most people probably won't like or appreciate. However, to suggest that this is one of the worst films ever made is probably a bit of a stretch too. In any case, having grown up with movies like this in my early years I personally didn't think it was that bad and for that reason I have rated it as about average.
oscar-35 *Spoiler/plot- 1956, Natives in Africa are invoking magic with a modern sci-fi twist, a mad scientist is involved seeking to produce a race of super humans. Gold seekers invade the village and they become sacrifices to the voodoo god and a rescue adventure begins.*Special Stars- Mike 'Touch' Connors, Marla English, Tom Conway, Lance Fuller, Mary Ellen Kaye.*Theme- Africa holds some of the oddest and strange customs and beliefs.*Trivia/location/goofs- Enjoy or NOT the early acting Mike "Manix" Connors aka B-Movie idol billed as 'Touch' Connors at this early time of his career.*Emotion- An enjoyable but rather crazy version of the "Frankenstein" plot story, only in Africa.
