A scientist is locked in the laboratory by his assistant Evelyn Avery (Dawn Wildsmith) and a mutating creature attacks him. He turns into a monster and then he attacks a young man outside the building, but is killed by his girlfriend that crashes her car on him. Meanwhile, the aging actress Lynn Roman (Bobbie Bresee), who is a former famous star, is fighting for a lead role in a movie directed by Mark Randall (Mark Anthony). However, Mark wants a younger actress between twenty and twenty-five years old for the role. Out of the blue, Evelyn meets Lynn and tells that her secretary Elaine (Pamela Gilbert) allowed her to meet Lynn to show an injection with a serum developed by Dr. Emil Zeitman (John Carradine) that would make her younger again. Lynn uses the experiment and turns into a monster, becoming a threat to her friends.
"Evil Spawn" is a 1987 B-movie that recalls a sci-fi from the 50's with gore and boobs. Sort of an encounter of "The Wasp Woman" with Playboy and blood. The screenplay is confused and the only thing really not good is the cameo of John Carradine that neither deserves his name in the credit not this film in his filmography. Pamela Gilbert in the swimming-pool is maybe one of the best parts of this forgettable film, released only on VHS in Brazil. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): 'Evil Spawn - A Semente do Mal" ("Evil Spawn - The Seed of Evil")
