Wow, this ticks all the fifties monster movie boxes.  A dour scientist, an inhuman brute carrying an unconscious woman, breaking glass, laser beams - it's all here.  I'm not sure what the deal is with the people standing around on a giant chessboard, though.

Some idiot decides to put some poor sod's brain in a big metal robot thing, and the next thing you know it's on a rampage.  And has somehow acquired the ability to shoot lasers out of it's eyes.  But remember, this may soon become science fact!

Isn't a colossus supposed to be an absolutely gigantic statue?  As opposed to about 7 foot tall like the one shown here?  Maybe it got special dispensation because of the eye lasers.

Against all odds, though, I think this movie looks like it might be quite good.  Am I mad?  Probably.

Favourite bit:  The wonderfully over-the-top piano music.
