This review is from: Embryo / The Steagle (DVD)

Call this one a Diane Ladd double feature (of sorts).

SYNOPSES--

THE STEAGLE (1971) - Richard Benjamin, Chill Wills, Cloris Leachman, Susan Tyrrell, Diane Ladd
Normally reserved college professor Benjamin loses all inhibitions during the Cuban Missle Crisis. Leaving home unexpectedly he adopts a pseudonym and flies to Vegas, where he gambles and has affairs. As "the REAL Andy Hardy" he meets aging cowboy star Wills. The two intoxicated men visit a bombed-out war set at the actor's former studio. In a strange highlight of this most unusual picture they fantasize they're machine-gunning WWI and WWII soldiers, plus a variety of western Indians, Arabs, armor-clad knights, Rebs and Union soldiers. (Available in an excellent dub as part of MILL CREEK's BOX OFFICE GOLD 50 MOVIE PACK.)

EMBRYO (1976) - Rock Hudson, Barbara Carrera, Diane Ladd, Roddy McDowall, Dr. Joyce Brothers
Middling sci-fier about a scientist who invents a method of accelerating gestation so that a fetus becomes an adult human in days rather than decades. His artificially grown creation turns to homicide in a quest to slow the aging process. Eerie in spots, violent in others, but mostly a dumb exercise in bad picture-making.
