I WAS A TEENAGE FRANKENSTEIN no stars

This Z-movie brings the Frankenstein legend up to date and to small town America. Whit Bissell is the new doctor walking in the footsteps of his more infamous ancestor and determined to create a new human being who won't be a monster like the one the Baron created but 'a youth' that he can teach. It's terrible, of course, though the appalling acting and unintentionally hilarious dialogue make it perfect midnight movie fare while poor Gary Conway had the misfortune of launching a not very illustrious career playing 'the creature'.
