The Quatermass Xperiment as Hammer’s first foray into the darkly fantastical, but this comparatively obscure B-picture beat it by two years.
Based on a novel by William F Temple, it’s set in a bucolic English village where two scientists invent the technology to replicate any object – or person. Driven by an unreciprocated crush, one of the boffins sets out to duplicate their lab assistant (a magnetic Barbara Payton in full ’50s peroxide bombshell mode).
