The Starlin and Zinthrop characters interest me. Susan Cabot gives Starlin a persuasive desperation. She’s harassed by success-seeking and worried at the prospect of losing her looks, both normal motivations. Thankfully, Michael Mark’s Dr. Zinthrop, for all his absent-mindedness and hunger for fame, is not the stereotypical mad scientist. He needs more training in Phase 1 of clinical trials, which examines the safety, not the efficacy, of a new drug and the best method of its administration. Maybe the drug in a topical cream would have been safer than an injection. Finally, the therimin music is perfect. In those far-off pre-vuvuzela days, what better instrument to produce the sound of a swarm of wasps?
