The movie actually has a progressive message about acceptance towards trans people (in 1953 no less!). But the filmmaking and storytelling is still laughably awful and sloppy. Bela Lugosi is literally acting in a different movie as a supposed mad scientist. He constantly looms superimposed over crowds of extras while spouting nonsensical dialogue. Like the other Ed Wood movies I've seen, it is very talky but it sounds like a dumb person trying to appear intelligent.
