The Brain From Planet Arous/Teenage Monster Review

The Brian is an archetypal alien take-over movie - in which John Agar is possessed by an evil giant brain and becomes a silver-eyed megalomaniac, and it is partnered with Teenage Monster, a dire Western monster picture about a shaggy mutation that whines a lot.

Original Title:

The Brain From Planet Arous / Teenage Monster

This double-bill partners a not-exactly-good-but-still-archetypal alien take-over movie - in which John Agar is possessed by an evil giant brain and becomes a silver-eyed megalomaniac - with a dire Western monster picture about a shaggy mutation that whines a lot. Brain has imaginative touches and wild ideas, but Teenage Monster is just shoddy.
