Review Summary

INDESTRUCTIBLE MAN is a movie produced and directed by Jack Pollexfen in 1956.

Charles "Butcher" Benton dies in the San Quentin gas chamber. A few hours later, he comes to life again thanks to a scientist using his body for an experiment with electricity. On the next 72 hours, Benton will kill all those who happen to cross his road. The Butcher is heading to Los Angeles in order to take revenge on his partners in crime and recover the loot of his last robbery. The 300,000 volt electrical discharge he underwent has made him mute and impervious to bullets.
