Creature With the Atom Brain

(1955)

A sort of early Terminator. A scientist creates zombie-like robots from reanimated corpses, who are fully as determined to carry out their missions as Arnold was. They are pretty creepy, inexorable, hard to kill because they’re already dead. I actually enjoyed this potboiler a lot more than I expected to, but it takes a taste for B-movies.
