Return of the Bogie man!
15 November 2006
This is the infamous picture that Humprey Bogart hates, but, no matter what the legend says, is still a funny film to watch. Of course, Bogey characterization of Doctor Xavier is odd, to say the least, but the plot actually makes sense, and his few minutes on screen are a must see. It is not a sequel of "Doctor X" (1932), with Lionel Atwill as the mad scientist, but a complete different story about resurrection of the dead using artificial blood, and Bogie, as a thinking zombie-like killer looks creepy and macabre. The brand new DVD restoration is amazingly clear, and offers another rarity: the theatrical trailer, made in a 90 per cent with deleted or alternate scenes, some of them very different to the final print. Don't miss the chance to see Bogey as a boogie man!
