George Zucco is the mad scientist and David Bruce his student in what may be better titled I Was a Teenage Zombie. Zucco reproduces an ancient potion which turns people into the living dead. He experiments on Bruce who transforms from clean-cut all-American boy to slovenly zombie instantly. Bruce goes in and out of the zombie routine when the potion wears off, sort of like Jekyll and Hyde. Zucco is able to control Bruce by some kind of silly hypnotic trick, and commands him to kill the boyfriend of the girl they are both in love with on stage in the dramatic ending.
