"...your father has just become a famous man."Dr Jeremy Spensser (John Baragrey), a genius and humanitarian, dies in an accident. His father (Otto Kruger) being a brain surgeon, decides to save his brain and places it within a robot body. But not just any old body, one that is 12 feet tall and possessed of enormous strength! Initially things go well, until the robot reveals it has developed ESP and predicts a number of catastrophic accidents and wants to go out into the world, but is prevented by his father and brother. What lengths will the robot go to to end its seclusion?
An interesting take on the Frankenstein story, with the mind of a gentle genius being warped by its seclusion and deprevation. Entertaining, but talky sci-fi.
