Synopsis
Monster on the Campus (1958) follows a university science professor whose discovery of a rare prehistoric fish leads to unexpected horror when contact with the fish’s irradiated blood causes him to regress into a vicious, primitive hominid. As mysterious killings and bizarre transformations erupt across the college campus, suspicion mounts and the professor must confront the terrifying “beast within” that he has unwittingly unleashed. This science-fiction horror blends retro creature feature spectacle and evolutionary dread in a classic atomic age monster tale.
