Classic horror film and creature feature directed by Frank R. Strayer and written by Edward T. Lowe Jr. Starring Lionel Atwill and original "horror chick" Fay Wray.
FYI, I commend the person who posted this movie (not sure when) but I just found a much clearer print posted recently by Cult Cinema Classics on youtube-see link below: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IctQwO6YYpQ.html
"Bats good.They not hurt Herman!" Dwight Fry having a ball again. Fay was in all the good adventure films...and the camera loved her. Look for her in The Bowery, with George Raft and Victor McLaughlin, and Jackie Cooper here on youtube. Amazing film that only takes a few seconds to let you know what you're in for. Great production.
Edward T. Lowe, Jr was my Mom's uncle. He was a newspaper reporter in Nashville, TN for the Banner. He was offered a job to write 'scenarios' (screenplays) in 1912. Moved from Nashville to Chicago, where the movie business was originally located, then to Los Angeles. My Mom got to visit 'Uncle Ed' on the set of one of the films he wrote back in 1937. Got to meet a ton of movie actors. Among them were Lew Ayres and John Barrymore
There is a nice article in the Tennessean June 08, 1913, about your mom's and your uncle. It chronicles his start in Chicago and progress to Los Angeles.
@@gregorywellssr7857, thanks. Mom has a scrapbook of her Uncle's screenplays showing his career in films. I have a program from the Nashville premier of 'The Hunchback of Notre Dame' in my collection. He was a very talented guy.
@@MrFletch821 Yes he was, you're welcome.Talented and SMART...a lot of the jokes in his work will fly right by you if you're not really listening.Very clever.
Atwill and George zucco need to be talked about more for their important contributions in the horror field. Carradine definitely because he has probably made more horror movies then any other actor.
All of these actors are great in their parts,and it is such a joy to watch them act,in this movie! Thank you,Mr.Stevenson,for sharing this movie! Nancy,Missouri.
Hi I must thank you for this masterpiece. You see when I was a kid and I mean eight nine years old I remember watching this. I grew up watching all these great very early horror movies. With my most all-time favorite favorite Dracula Bela Lugosi, Dracula 1931 (((( When he walked down that staircase ))) He was and still is Bela Lugosi the best Dracula. God Rest his soul No on the issue all of that particular movie : Now I could be wrong but I believe the name in the movie was The night of the vampire And look how young Mister Atwill is in this movie. ? He's playing the doctor. It's just great thank you ever so much.
leftcoaster67 .....yes she was ... celebrated as the girl to climb the empire state building with King Kong she died in NYC 2004 (97years old) living to see the destruction of the Twin Towers ... would love to have met her .....
The 1930s had lots of hotties besides fay like ann Dvorak, gloria stuart, Francis farmer, madge evens, Francis drake and Jacqueline wells among others.
Another thing is this thumbnail makes it look like Fay Wray looks like she's the one who has the fangs . But I'm watching the movie on a very small screen
Does anyone know the name of the first "von" person that was killed? It sounds simply like "von Els." He never appears in the film, just the name is mentioned a few times. Thank you!!
If you planned it all out correctly and all the actors really knew their lines a film maker could have shot this entire film in five days tops. Maybe some evenings. Any director taking more than seven days for this shoot would be a lazy bum. I say this because planning out shooting schedules to maximize money is key to actually finishing a film when funds are slim.
O atual Secretario de Governo, Roberto Maluf 2019 poderia comentar...Se vai ou nao ter Impeachment caso Fernando Collor ganhe as eleições Presidenciais, como no ano 1990 (O Golo foi em 1992), antes da Avenida Rio-Santos concluida (projeto do tio dele, Paulo Maluf, em seu Governo Bionico 1980 (que nao acabou com a Radio Oceanica Jovem Pan. Acho que nem o DER nem o DETRAN ou os Pedagometros conseguirao)
I found this disappointingly silly for he most part; the first 40 minutes are pure piffle. When we find out what the evil doctors' up to, it improves, but then gets silly again. Could've been so much better I think.
