Greatly overlooked and underratedBobo 11/20/2007 
  Given the campy 1950 sci-fi genre, this movie has reasonably decent production values. I found it to be a fairly engaging attempt to resolve a love triangle by cloning of the woman of interest in a somewhat Frankenstein-ian laboratory setting. IMHO, worth far more than the modest 1-star rating posted above.
