THE MAN WHO TURNED TO STONE is a typical B-movie effort from the late 1950s, made amid a welter of similar looking and sounding titles. This one straddles the science fiction and horror genres in the tale of a group of cadaverous men who are prolonging their lives by literally draining the life energy of various unwilling young women, killing them in the process. Victory Jory makes for a suitably gaunt and sinister villain, but the rest of the cast are undistinguished here and the special FX are typically limited to some grey face makeup that reminded me of the cemetery zombie in NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD.
