豆知識

The Cyclops is a 1957 American science fiction horror film written, produced and directed by Bert I. Gordon, starring James Craig, Lon Chaney Jr. and Gloria Talbott. The theme of a monster created as a result of radioactivity was a common one in the 1950s.

Production

The film was shot in 1955. The main leads, James Craig, Tom Drake and Gloria Talbott signed up for the independent production, which was initially going to be a RKO production, but financing fell through. The producer/director Bert I. Gordon worked feverishly to complete the film before money ran out, with only five or six days allotted to shooting. Not making things any easier was having to contend with Lon Chaney Jr., who was habitually drunk.

Production effects in The Cyclops were limited to backscreen projection, rudimentary matte work, and incorporating large images into the scenes. In the film, there is a scene in which Barton grabs Susan Winter (Talbott), but he also grabs the background as well, revealing the black color behind it.
