About The Man Who Could Cheat Death
Dr. Bonner plans to live forever through periodic gland transplants from younger, healthier human victims. Bonner looks about 40; he's really 104 years old. But people are starting to get suspicious, and he may not make 200.
Directed by Terence Fisher, The Man Who Could Cheat Death leans on a strong ensemble — Anton Diffring, Hazel Court, Christopher Lee — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1959.
