"The Livng Ghost" (1944)
-James Dunn

Plot: IMDB

Wise-cracking ex-detective Nick Trayne is called in to try to find the whereabouts of wealthy kidnap victim Walter Craig. Craig unexpectedly turns up alive but with apparent brain damage, leaving him in a zombified state. Trayne and his perky assistant Billie Hilton have their work cut out for them as they must sift through a houseload of possible suspects to get at the culprit.

Phantom's Review: Low budget attempt to recreate the Bob Hope style of thriller-comedy. It's an okay film, but don't go out of your way to find it.

That was just on Turner Classic Movies and I recorded it due to the fact that I am a fan of James Dunn.

It was OK. Drank my big coke & ate my popcorn and was at least entertained.

Dr. Terror's House of Horrors


Peter Cushing as Dr Terror in train carriage with five other men. As the journey continues he tells these men their dark futures with tarot cards. The best of the five is probably the disembodied hand with Christopher Lee, but its a great little anthology.

The Mad Magician (1954)



Thanks to V for mentioning this wonderful film of my most favorite actor lately in a BR Challenge. Although there's kind of House of Wax flavor with more of a mystery-thriller touch rather than horror. But Price fans can't allowed to miss it anyway. Loved it. There's an interesting period part in the story about implementing the Finger print techniques to solve the murder cases but the police chief wasn't sure about its accuracy or acceptance in the system. However my only complain goes as usually with the title, The Poor Magician should be more appropriate in terms of all the tragedy Gallico suffered in his significantly underrated career.

I never really watched this whole movie before [ I know, huh ]

great atmosphere.....the house was the real star of the movie....could have used some more scares but overall a fine movie watching experience.
