the crawling hand (1963)

AKA Don't Cry Wolf. The Creeping Hand.
"I am not out of my mind."
A space capsule is blown up whilst in orbit and a teenager Paul Lawrence (Rod Lauren) finds some wreckage and a severed arm. Unfortunately the arm seems to have a life of it's own and takes over Pauls mind in order to kill.
Indifferent acting, cheap sets and extremely flawed logic do nothing to stop the enjoyment of this sci-fi romp.
Sure it's bad, but it's good bad. Why it even features "The Bird's The Word" by The Rivingtons which is always a plus point!
