4D Man (also known as The Evil Force in the UK; reissued as Master of Terror in the US) is a 1959 independent[2] American science-fiction film in color by De Luxe, produced by Jack H. Harris (from his original screenplay), directed by Irvin S. Yeaworth Jr.,[3] and starring Robert Lansing, Lee Meriwether, and James Congdon.
A brilliant but irresponsible scientist, Dr. Tony Nelson, develops an electronic amplifier that he hopes will allow any object to achieve a fourth-dimensional (4D) state.
Scott is a researcher in a plant located in West Chester, Pennsylvania, and is working on a material called Cargonite that is so dense that it is impenetrable.
When demonstrating this to Tony, Scott leaves the amplifier power turned off, yet he successfully passes his hand through a block of steel.
The aged Scott accidentally learns how to survive, when he visits the company doctor, who, to his horror, suddenly drops dead while examining him.
The following day, news hits town that $50,000 were stolen from the bank with no sign of forced entry, nor any video footage of the crime.
With his newfound bravado, he ignores this development; combined with his victory over the toughs and his ill-gotten money, he impresses a bar girl.
When they later kiss, Scott's power turns itself on again and the B-girl flees in horror now that she has rapidly aged, her blonde hair now white.
Bleeding and feeling betrayed, Scott maniacally proclaims his invincibility and defiantly phase-shifts his body (albeit with difficulty) through a wall embedded with supposedly impenetrable Cargonite.
