i discovered this gem of grainy cinema many moons ago ... probably circa 1998, when i went to college and was given my first "high-speed" internet connection ... upon being granted "high-speed" access to the world wide web, i discovered (amongst many other things) the wonder that is archive.org, then still a budding online project ... the file formats were limited, and it crapped out most of the time (kinda like myspace but not nearly as stupid) ... during one of my many overnight jaunts on the internet (instead of studying) i came across ...
experiments in the revival of organisms
this video is notable for a couple of things ...
- its a joint soviet/united states production ... i would guess there's not a whole lof of these out there, the window of soviet/us friendliness only lasted a few years, and was also during a world war, so i cant imagine there were too many resources being poured into crazy experimental experiments with crazy soviet/us doctors running amok ...
- the narrators voice is so perfect its scary ... they couldnt have gotten a creepier/vaguely eastern european/mad doctor guy to have voiced that ... vincent price could learn somethin ...
- check the flash gordon-esque medical equipment ... oh and
- THEY FUCKING REANIMATE A SEVERED DOGS HEAD!!!!
enjoy!
