The title "The Revenge of Dr. X" was accidentally placed on this film when it was meant to be attached to a re-release of "The Mad Doctor of Blood Island". The incorrect cast list at the beginning of the film (which matches up to "Mad Doctor", but fits no one in this film) confirms the mixup.

The title of the script as Ed knew it was "The Venus Flytrap", but it *may* have been released as "The Double Garden" in its original release in Japan (this has not been confirmed).

Those of you that are young might keep in mind that Ed Wood had the idea for a plant monster in the form of a man many years before DC comics created Swamp Thing and Marvel comics created the rival Man Thing. Both are available on dvd but nowhere near as much fun as this movie. One of the favorite films with comic book artists (and fans) was Plan 9 From Outer Space in 1970. We never imagined a movie like Ed Wood being made back then. He truly didn't deserve to die in both obscurity and poverty. He loved movies.

No Dr X… no revenge… no sense… what’s with the volcano?... no cigarettes in his office… no music score to suit the purpose of any scene… no anger management courses (which this guy really needed…

This was a Fankenstein movie for vegetarians... then again, the ‘venus flytrap’ became a carnivore did it not?

My wife and I couldn’t stop laughing for the first half of the film. After that, we were just simply insulted by the level of this movie.

On the positive note, the landmarks, buildings and vehicles in the background might serve as nostalgic purpose to some. Like passengers don’t get off planes like that any more. Ha ha ha

And that little red sports car… can any one confirm that it was a 1965 Sunbeam Tiger Mark I?


Smoke me a kipper. I’ll be back for breakfast

No one called "Doctor X" and no revenge to speak of. watched this three times as a part of a project. Oh, the organ music!

As someone already said the title was mistakenly put on this movie. Revenge was a different movie by the same director that starred John Ashley and Angelique Pettyjohn. This one was called Venus Flytrap.
