Movie Info

A gangster is killed by a big man who pays no attention to bullets, and who leaves glowing fingerprints. Police scientist Chet Walker (Richard Denning) discovers that the fingerprints are radioactive -- as well as those of a dead man. We soon learn that this walking corpse was created by Dr. Wilhelm Steigg (Gregory Gaye); he's allowing secretly-returned deported gangster Buchanan (Michael Granger) to get revenge on those who were responsible for his conviction. Steigg removes part of the brains

Audience Reviews for Creature with the Atom Brain

A gangster uses an ex-Nazi scientist to re-animate corpses with radiation for revenge and murder. Interestingly, the ex-Nazi is rightly shown as a humanitarian who just wanted to make the world a better place, but is being manipulated by the Irish mobster guy. He also uses the zombies to attack the lead investigator of the killings. Some good stuff, especially the scenes with the protagonist's wife. Also what looks like an early prototype for the cars that created the Google maps.

This one was kinda fun actually! Little girl was creepy! showing her undies all the time. Liked how forehead seams were unnoticed. Liked how parents lied to their child about her uncle. I was waiting for a Shaun of the Dead ending where they kept uncle Dave in the backyard.
