Lon Chaney Jr. is the title character in Indestructible Man (1956), not to be confused with Man Made Monster (1941), The Magnetic Monster (1952), or even The Alligator People (1959). But that poster is so confusing! Despite not having many lines, Chaney still emotes the hell out of his role as “Butcher” Benton. To top it off, he’s supported by many of the usual excellent character actors. And even though the script is all chopped up, it all makes sense… sort of.
At the time of this writing, Indestructible Man (1956) is available to stream from the Classic Horror Movie Channel, Wicked Horror TV, Hoopla, Tubi, Pluto TV, Screambox, Amazon Prime, and MGM+.
