Embryo (1976)

Embryo (1976, USA) C-104m. *½ D: Ralph Nelson. Starring Rock Hudson, Barbara Carrera, Diane Ladd, Roddy McDowall, Anne Schedeen. Poorly paced attempt at updating the FRANKENSTEIN theme casts Hudson as doctor, who experiments with a special growth potion on fetuses. When his experiment with a dog succeeds, it's only a matter of time till he tries it on a human embryo. Voice-overs give it a documentary feel not needed, production values are low. Look in vain for traces of style. Alternative title: CREATED TO KILL.
