The Mad Monster (1942)

An American science fiction horror film directed by Sam Newfield.
A mad scientist injects his gardener with wolf blood and turns him into a werewolf. The gardener then goes out and kills people at night as the werewolf, but has no memory of it when he turns back into a human during the day. The scientist tries to prove his success to his old colleagues who have excommunicated him for being a mad scientist.
The production was absolutely prehistoric. Bad audio was crunching at scene changes with tons of whooshing and hissing dead air. Bad video was overexposed and bleached looking on light surfaces, but underexposed and totally black on darks. The plot was simple and should not have taken so long to communicate. The slow pacing made an hour and fifteen minutes seem like eternity. I rate this shit for such bad presentation, even though I watched the whole thing.
