A newspaper reporter looks into the deaths of young brides on their wedding day, whose bodies were subsequently stolen, the victims of a mad scientist trying to restore his wife's youth and beauty.
We have here a fun low-budget horror flick headlined by Lugosi, notable for scenes in which the actor recalls his "Dracula" role by sleeping in a coffin. It's not among his better showcases, but it held my interest, with Walters good as the lovely reporter, and some fine background music for her investigation of the secret passage leading to the scientist's laboratory. There's some loopy humor as well with a henchman who pursues Walters while chewing on a chicken leg.
