NIGHT KEY (1937)>>>>>>>>>>>>>POSSIBLE SPOILERS ALTHOUGH IT MIGHT SPARE YOU THE PAIN AND WASTED TIME>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
One of the first films shot at Universal with new owners, this has Boris Karloff as a kindly inventor who is screwed over, not once, but TWICE by Samuel S Hinds and decides to take an almost Gahndi style form of revenge. Incredibly listless and a completely ridiculous ending. Watch FRANKENSTEIN, THE MUMMY or THE BODY SNATCHER instead. *1/2 |

So far this month:
Gorgo The Black Sleep Night of the Living Dead |

We watched The WOLF MAN as well than put in FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLFMAN (1943) which, for my money, one of the better Universals from that time. Really like the title sequence with the test tubes, one of the best opening scenes in any film, good cast and of course, "The Battle of the Century" towards the end. Lon JR is really good as WM and while the jury is still out on Bela as the Monster, think it would have played better had the original script been left alone with its references from GHOST OF FRANKENSTEIN to explain while the Monster acts as he does. ***1/2
