This is another one of these "not bad" sci-fi/horror/crime/drama/whatever you want to label it 1950s B-films.

Benton is also unable to speak, as his vocal cords have been destroyed ... Read More

Hollywood just couldn't get enough of clumsy, oafish, neo-Frankenstein monsters in the 1950s, as this movie demonstrates quite well. Lon Chaney, Jr., looking like a cross between Babe Ruth and Walter Matthau, plays Charles "Butcher" Benton, a death row inmate who swears revenge on his partners in crime for turning states' evidence and helping earn him a date with the gas chamber. I'm not sure why they call him the Butcher, though; as far as we are told, all he did was help hold up an armored car, steal 600 grand, ... Read More
