Tarantola (1955)
Tre scienziati, nel tentativo di risolvere il problema della fame nel mondo attraverso la sintetizzazione di un alimento dalle proprietà rivoluzionarie, hanno la pessima trovata di fissarne le componenti tramite un isotopo radioattivo. Il prodotto è piuttosto instabile: le conseguenze mortifere sono dunque garantite.
