The H Man (1958) is a movie I recently streamed off The Daily Motion. The storyline follows a recent murder the police and the victim's family are investigating in a hopping local establishment. Little do they know a slime like creature has emerged from the ocean where everything it touches turns into a creature just like it...
This movie is directed by Ishirô Honda (Godzilla, 1954) and stars Kenji Sahara (Godzilla, 1954), Akihiko Hirata (Godzilla, 1954), Eitarô Ozawa (The Master Spearman), Makoto Satô (The Hidden Fortress), Yoshifumi Tajima (Hidden Fortress) and Hisaya Itô (Destroy All Monsters).
This movie has a good set-up and various circumstances. The segments discussing the science elements in a Ishirô Honda film are always far out there and fun. The special effects of the slime and green fog are excellent as are the decomposing animals and humans. There's some good humor in here also. The sequence the guy is hitting on the girl while walking in the sewers looking for The H Man was hilarious.
Overall this is an entertaining project from Ishirô Honda that isn't his best work but is worth a viewing. I'd score this a 6-6.5/10 and recommend seeing it once.
