6/10
Intriguing B-movie with higher aspirations
18 May 2023
"6 Hours To Live" has a terrific, original premise which borrows elements from the previous year's "Frankenstein" but also predates "D. O. A" by almost 20 years (!): scientist brings murdered man back to life, but he is still doomed: he has only six hours to live, in which time he must find his own murderer. It's not as exciting as it might have been, but it does try to dabble in several different fields: political drama, romantic melodrama, sci-fi, murder mystery (the least satisfying part), existentialism, religious parable, etc. It's an ambitious B-movie. The final shot is great. **1/2 out of 4.
