A campy 1950s mad-scientist horror film that blends atomic-age anxieties with pulp adventure, driven more by B-movie spectacle and earnest strangeness than genuine dread.

Dr. Eric Vornoff, with the help of his mute assistant Lobo, captures twelve men for a grisly experiment; His goal to turn them into supermen using atomic energy. Reporter Janet Lawton, fiancée of the local lieutenant, vows to investigate Vornoff's supposedly haunted house.
