Directed by Ian Curteis
UK 1966
|
Dr. Paul Steiner and Dr. Christopher Mitchell have created a projection device that can transmit any object within a few miles of their new device. The device works well on inanimate objects, but using it on a living device causes death. When Steiner is accidentally projected, he becomes a disfigured monster who has the ability to kill by electrification. This first-time-on-home-video release features a new 2K scan of the film’s interpositive. *** Genius physicist Dr. Paul Steiner (Bryant Haliday) and his assistant Dr. Chris Mitchel (Ronald Allen) are on the verge of perfecting a laser-based system for turning matter into pure energy, storing it in a receiving cell, then projecting it wherever they want. At first they’re elated when they successfully project a live guinea pig. Elation turns to disappointment when Steiner touches it and it promptly dies, giving him a shock in the process. Inexplicably, the imperious director of the foundation that they work for, Dr. Blanchard (Norman Wooland) threatens to pull the project's funding if they don’t make more progress, and fast (like teleporting inanimate matter is just routine—no, nothing to see here folks, can’t think of any lucrative applications for that! There’s some speculation between Steiner and Mitchel that Blanchard is jealous of Steiner’s success, but that doesn’t explain at all why the director would sit on the greatest scientific breakthrough of all time.)

On their
Blu-ray,
Shout! Factory use a DTS-HD Master dual-mono track (24-bit) in the
original English language. It is a bit weak in the high-end and it has
an effective score by
Kenneth V. Jones (Psyche
59,
Ten
Seconds to Hell,
Tower of Evil,
Tomb of Legeia,
The Horse's Mouth)
carrying some minor depth. Shout! Factory offer optional English
subtitles (see sample below) on their Region 'A'
Blu-ray.
The Shout! Factory
Blu-ray
The Projected Man
is schlocky - mocked by Mystery Science Theatre 3000. Being British is a
positive for me - it gives the film an atmosphere. It was on a
double-feature with another Brit sci-fi gem,
Island of Terror (which I really loved.) The
make-up is weak but that wasn't a deal-breaker for me. I love indulging
in these Sunday-afternoon short-and-sweet dreck-ie trash efforts. Yes,
there are echoes of
The Fly. The Shout! Factory Blu-ray
