Directed by George Eastman

A university research lab after hours: empty corridors, restless animal cages, and a young geneticist racing to prove his anti-ageing serum works before the funding vanishes. With no volunteers and no approval, he rolls up his own sleeve. The fevers and blackouts come first; then a mutation that refuses to stop, while a concerned colleague and a little girl drift into the experiment's orbit. Modest means, total conviction: Italian body horror that trusts latex, sweat and scientific desperation to carry the night.
