Atom Age Vampire (originally an Italian: movie named Seddok l'erede di Satana) is a 1960 Italian horror movie. The film was directed by Anton Giulio Majano. It was shot in black and white, and the film was produced by Elio Ippolito Mellina. The stars are Alberto Lupo, Susanne Loret, and Sergio Fantoni set in France. Even though there are no vampires in the film, it was released in the US as Atom Age Vampire in 1963 in an 87-minute version.
When a stripper (played by Susanne Loret) becomes disfigured in a car accident, a scientist (Dr. Levin, played by Alberto Lupo) develops a treatment to restore her beauty by injecting her with a special serum. While performing the procedure, however, he falls in love with her. As the treatment begins to fail, he determines to save her appearance, regardless of how many women he must kill for her sake.
Despite the implication of its American title, the film does not feature an actual vampire. The titular Seddok is the brilliant but deranged scientist Dr. Levin, mutated by a chemical formula created using radiation. Dr. Levin studied the effects of radiation on living tissue in post-Hiroshima Japan and made an imperfect and teratogenic serum, "Derma 25", which he later refined into the miraculous healing agent "Derma 28", which he used to treat the heroine.
