Much more interesting as a piece of propaganda than as a document of medical science. The part with the severed dog's head was clearly staged, but still unsettling.

After the experiment, dogs live for years, they grow, they put on weight, and have families.

Fascinating, but not informative enough and partly made up.

Now *this* is something to behold. Very unsettling, but in a good way. While seeing it, I felt like I was watching a vintage sf/horror film

There will never again be something quite like this. A true anomaly; horrible and fascinating all at once.

Doesn't really succeed for me on any level; it's not convincing as a documentary but isn't really interesting as faux-documentary either.
