The Mutations is a 1974 British horror film directed by Jack Cardiff. The film follows the story of a mad scientist named Professor Nolter (Donald Pleasence) who is working on a new experiment, cross-breeding plants with humans. He recruits a group of students from a nearby college to help him with his experiment.
The experiment involves injecting the human subjects with a serum that causes their bodies to mutate and grow plant-like appendages. However, things don't go as planned, and the mutated subjects start to rebel against their creator.
The mutated subjects are then captured and put on display in a traveling sideshow run by an unscrupulous showman named Lynch (Brad Harris). The show becomes a sensation, and crowds flock to see the bizarre human-plant hybrids.
Meanwhile, the police are closing in on Professor Nolter, and Lynch's treatment of the mutated subjects becomes increasingly cruel and exploitative.
The Mutations is a disturbing and surreal horror film that explores themes of science gone wrong and the consequences of playing God. The film features strong performances from Donald Pleasence and Brad Harris and is noteworthy for its eerie atmosphere and gruesome special effects.
