Okay, so I accepted the fact that they could dramatize what happened with a group of young clones of Hitler in "The Boys from Brazil", but that's had a classy production and a sensational cast of legends. It wasn't exploitation in any way, and it even had a good message. But this science fiction film with psychological horror of what could happen if a bad man's brain was indeed saved after their death is just tacky from the start. Add in a very low budget that looks like it was 20 years before, a cast of some very bad actors, and you have a candidate for one of the very worst films of all times, and considering that the script is completely banal adds to the absurdity of the film when scene 60 years after its release.
It's not just bad enough that they made this in 1963, but unrelated people to the original film grabbed it, threw in some tossed in footage, and created a supposedly new film that was aired on television rather than showing in theaters. Obviously very few people saw it in 1963, so they got away with it, with one of the issues being that there is so much extraneous footage in this is that a good 20 minutes could be cut out for the plot to be developed, dramatized and wrapped up. The first half hour is filled with a ton of this extraneous footage, and that makes it a very difficult film to try to get into because it's exploiting the era it was made in rather than dealing with the story it was trying to develop. By trying to be a hip early 60's movie with the weird plot, it's just one of those films that you gape at and wonder what was in the writer's mind when they even thought of the idea, or what they had smoked.
