Reviews

By CinemaSerf

Bela Lugosi can't quite keep this rather dull, derivative, story from falling flat. He portrays a scientist who kidnaps young, beautiful brides in order to extract their life source and inject it into his now ancient wife in order to rejuvenate her. Tristram Coffin and Luana Walters try to get to the bottom of the kidnaps and soon stumble on the evil scheme. It's an indifferent amalgam of loads of similar stories - but is only an hour.
