    Skip It, Unless You Love Suffering
    Sure, it's got Doug "Sting of Death" Hobart as the werewolf. Sure, it's got all the production values of a 1950s educational film (I suspect it was made by the same folks that did those). Sure, it's a black-and-white drive-in cheapie.

    But it's HORRIBLE! Bottom-of-the-barrel in every possible department, THE PROFESSOR is terribly written, god-awfully acted, ineptly directed, and has the lowest possible production values. There's no thrills, no excitement, no fun... just a little over an hour of cinematic tedium such as few films can deliver.

    Do yourself a favor. If you get the Sinister Cinema double feature of TALES OF FRANKENSTEIN and THE PROFESSOR, just stop watching at the end of TOF. Really.
