How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A campy 1950s creature feature that treats its B-movie premise with deadpan earnestness, resulting in a strange mix of genuine menace and unintentional comedy. The teenage monster's indignation at his own creation offers an unexpectedly poignant note beneath the mad-scientist melodrama.
