WHITE ZOMBIE A strangely poetic horror film inspired by William B. Seabrook's non- fiction book on Haiti, The Magic Island, which offers Bela Lugosi as Murder Legendre, a satanic plantation owner who commands an army of zombies. A bizarre, moody chiller, packed with surreal imagery (the zombie operated sugar mill, for one) and aided by Bela Lugosi's acting and uncredited directorial aid. Directed by Victor Halperin. Cast; Bela Lugosi, Madge Bellamy, Robert Frazier. US 1932 70m. |

SCARED TO DEATH Interested in something unusual? How about a story of a woman scared to death by a mask? Mix in a hypnotist and a dwarf and tell the creepy tale via flashback by a corpse in the local morgue! An interesting film that employs some unusual surrealist elements to advance the shockline and a primitive, not entirely successful, color process. Directed by; Christy Cabanne. Cast; George Zucco, Bela Lugosi, Nat Pendleton, Joyce Compton. USA 1946 70m. |

INVISIBLE GHOST A creaky, quicky, creepie from Monogram studios’ B-horror period. Be!a Lugosi stars as a man under the hypnotic control of his criminally insane wife who makes him do her evil bidding...murder and madness soon follow. Lugosi spends most of his time looking out of windows and there are tons of closeups of his hypnotized eves! A most awesome flick for Bela buffs. Directed by Joseph H. Lewis. Cast; Bela Lugosi, Polly Ann Young, Clarence Muse. USA 1941 63 minutes

THE
MYSTERY OF THE MARY CELESTE Based on a true incident. In 1872 a ship was found drifting in the Atlantic without a single soul on board. Years of investigation did not turn up an answer to what happened to the captain or crew but this creative and credible film dares to speculate. Lugosi stars as one of the seamen, a man deformed physically and mentally by the cruel treatment of the ship's Captain. Stars Bela Lugosi, Shirley Grey , Arthur Margetson. 1937 64 minutes. |
