hideous sun demon (1959)

AKA Blood on His Lips. The Sun Demon.
"No more wandering at night my boy, and no more drinking!"
An atomic scientist, Dr. Gilbert McKenna (Robert Clarke), is involved in an nuclear accident, but doctors are baffled that he seems to have no symptoms of radiation poisoning. But McKenna's luck runs out when he his left in the sun during his recovery, as he transform into a hideous monster. The doctors realise that every time he is in direct sunlight he is turned by the sun into a monster obsessed with finding a mate. Then one night McKenna falls for a lounge singer, he must then choose between his new life as a man eating monster, or his love of busty singers - which will he choose?
A low budget atomic horror, that manages to be fun and funny at the same time. You'll be entertained by it, whilst at the same time laughing at the premise, and the lamentable acting. A must see for fans of 50's sci-fi monster movies.
