Project X is a 1968 science fiction film directed by William Castle from the novels The Artificial Man and Psychogeist by L. P. Davies. The script was written by Edmund Morris and had special sequences animated by Hanna Barbara. The story echoes some geopolitical themes of the times such as overpopulation, emerging genetic engineering, biological warfare and fear of Asian dominance, and mixes in science fiction concepts such as holographic devices, memory manipulation and viewing, and virtual environments to create a story of futuristic espionage.
