  Cheesy body-melt movie about an Astronaught who arrives back on earth after being hit by a solar wave in space which has caused his body to slowly melt away forcing him to kill and feed on others to renew his cells. Silly low-budget fun overall. The highlight of the movie is Rick Baker's gooey make-up effects. Most of the kills are off-screen but the gory aftermath is often shown in all its messiness. The Melting Man himself looks suitably disgusting constantly dripping with pus and blood. It's enjoyable for what it is, well worth checking out!

  Campy fun for those times when you're in the mood for some '70's cheese. Gotta love a monster that leaves a trail of ooze and misc. body parts - an ear here, an eyeball there, etc,, etc., etc.

  A deserving cult classic that is a goofy, cheesy and melty good time.

  "The Incredible Melting Man" is a fantastically gross, trashy and energetic Z-grade production that every self-respecting camp-horror freak simply has to see for him/herself! The ideal way to describe this low-budget 70's gem is like a shameless copy of Hammer's "The Quatermass Xperiment" ...only a thousand times filthier! Astronaust Steve West is the only survivor of a disastrous space-mission, but turns out the carrier of a horrible disease that makes him radioactive and ... causes him to melt! In shock after seeing his face in the mirror (can you blame him?), Steve busts out of the hospital, leaving a trail of sticky pus and fallen off body parts behind. Doctor Ted Nelson has to find him urgently, as the disease also set Steve up with an insatiable appetite for human flesh. The premise may sound utterly stupid but this flick is enormously entertaining and contains great make-up effects from the hand of Rick Baker. The melting dude's face looks like a rotting pizza and his heavy breathing makes him sound like Darth Vader! Another big advantage is that William Sachs' screenplay doesn't waste any time on tedious scientific explanations or emotional speeches. The repulsiveness starts right away and lasts until the very last moment of the film. Just enjoy this silly horror gem and try to switch off your brain activity as much as you can because, if you start contemplating about the many stupidities in the script, you'll miss out on all the campy fun! The beast from 20,000 fathoms Ray Harryhausen's first solo effort at stop-motion resulted in one of the best monster movies of the 1950's. This was the first of the many rampage films of the 1950's and was a great success at the box office. Ray's stop-motion Redosaurus is magnificent, considering the low budget. One of the best scenes in this movie is where the Rhedosaurus eats the policeman. The acting is rather good and the cast includes Kenneth Tobey (The Thing From Another World) and an early appearance from Lee Van Cleef before he stared with the 'carrot' in It Conquered the World. I enjoyed this movie and rate it 5 stars out of 5. Great stuff.
