Poster for the movie Man with Two Lives

Man with Two Lives (Monogram, 1942)

When a scientist experimenting with revivification brings a young man (Edward Norris) back to life after a car crash, something is very different about the boy. He soon is heading out of the house and taking up with a gang of crooks and proving himself a vicious member of the gang, even as he neglects his fiancée and turns on his friends and family. By curious coincidence, a notorious killer was executed at the exact instant the young man was revived, and it is this dead gangster’s mob and moll with which he now fills his time. Just who was brought back to life? A decent concept falls rather flat in this low-budget outing.

  Not recommended. Otto thinks you should avoid this movie.

Movie 94 for 2021.
