What Is 4D Man About?

The premise of 4D Man without spoilers.

Two scientist brothers, Scott and Tony Nelson, build an amplifier that pushes a user into a fourth‑dimensional state, letting them walk through solid steel, stone or any obstacle. Scott tests the device on himself, discovering each passage rapidly ages him. To reverse it, he murders victims, siphoning their life force to regain his youth.
