In 1956, Lon Chaney, Jr. starred as "Butcher Benton", condemned killer...
...who, after his execution, is accidentally revived by two scientists.
Now almost indestructible, he seeks revenge against those who double-crossed him.
But his crooked lawyer, Paul Lowe, gets himself arrested to ensure police protection.
In the final version of the film, Lowe escapes Benton's wrath.
But production stills exist of a scene that was filmed but not used...
...in which Benton launches a deadly assault on the police station, "Terminator"-style.
This scene would've made a fairly good low-budget thriller even better...
...and fans of the film can only wonder what might have been.
I neither own nor claim any rights to this material. Just having some fun with it. Thanks for watching!
