Monster on the Campus (1958)

"Now I hope I've made these two aspects of living organisms clear to you. In the case of the coelacanth, we have a species which became stabilised over two hundred million years ago, in the form you see here. But in the case of man, we have a recent species which is not stabilised at all. Man is not only capable of change but man alone, among all living creatures, can choose the direction in which that change will take place. In other words, man can use his knowledge to destroy all spiritual values and reduce the race to bestiality, or he can use his knowledge to increase his understanding to a point far beyond anything now imaginable."

RETRO REVIEW –STAR SCIENCE FICTION #2 (1954)

Figure 1 Srar Science Fiction #2 Cover by John Berkey I had planned to review the British (Sky) science fiction series, The Lazarus Project, now about to enter Season 2, for this week; it’s pure SF with only a minimum of technobabble (just enough to enable the premise), but I think I’ll need to devote a lot of thought to how one can review a continuing series without entirely spoiling the whole…

Evolution, coelacanths and cavemen?! Oh my! Something stalks this college but spoiler alert: It's not teens... it's MONSTER ON THE CAMPUS (1958) from director Jack Arnold!

The film stars Arthur Franz, Joanna Cook Moore and Troy Donahue for the latest Jekyll and Hyde riff.
