A story full of plot holes,mad scientists and the perennial old dark house are the ingredients in this old campy horror flick/murder mystery. Made in the two-strip technicolor process this movie is quite an oddity. An annoying performance by Lee Tracy and some hammy acting can't take away the pleasure of watching this creaky horror melodrama. The sets remind me a bit of the German horror movies of the silent era like "The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari". Fay Wray as the female lead hasn't much to do than look lovely and do her legendary screams.Preston Foster in one of his early important roles does quite nice.An enjoyable campy horror-flick.
