now i love bela lugosi and do not get me wrong and he be one of the most interesting people to ever make a movie but he certainly do his share of clunkers . this be just another one of those . lugosi play dr. lorenz and a doctor who have have his medical license pull for unexplained reason . he be however do experiment to keep his wife young and beautiful . it reveal that she be 70 80 year old yet lugosi look to be in his mid 50 so why he be marry to this old woman be never really explain . anyway these treatment or experiment involve give bride who be at the altar be marry some sort of sweet smell substance whereby they pass out but be think to be dead . then lugosi and some of his assistant steal the body on it way to the morgue and take it back to his lab where it keep in some sort of suspended animation or catatonic state . then the steal bride have a needle ram somewhere in their body and maybe the neck and and then the needle be ram into the body of lugosi wife to bring her back to youth and beauty . we never really see where lugosi stick the needle or what it be that he draw out of the bride but it somehow restore his wife . apparently old age make you scream with pain because lugosi wife do a lot of scream until she get back to her young state . help lugosi in his lab be the only good thing about this movie . a weird old hag and her two deformed son . one son be a big lumpy look slow act fellow who like to fondle the snoozing bride and the other son be a mean little dwarf . little person and to be politically correct in today world . at night these three just sort of pile up and sleep in lugosi dreary downstairs lab . who these 3 be and how they come to be lugosi scared assistant be and like a lot of stuff in this film and never explain . so anyway a female reporter be give the assignment by her gruff editor to find out where all the steal bride be go to . she quickly figure out that the one common thing among all the steal bride be a rare orchid that be find on them . so she ask around and be tell that there be a world renowned orchid expert live nearby who just happen to be the one who develop this particular orchid . this expert turn out to be creepy dr. lorenz . she quickly track him down and upset his little house of horror . i be not sure where the police be during all this but they come in to mop up after the reporter have do all the dirty work . it seem that lugosi movie always have some sort of unnecessary silly plot line that just make the whole thing stink to high heaven . i mean a world famous orchid expert kidnaps bride by send them a dope up orchid he himself be know to have develop . doh . and then later it reveal that the young lady do not even have to be bride for the procedure to work so why would lugosi keep kidnap bride from heavily guard church for his experiment and create all the attention and newspaper headline . why not just grab a prostitute off the street like a normal weirdo pervert would do . this clunker remind me a lot of another lugosi stinker and the devil bat . same silly plot line and bad acting and same silly reporter get bad guy deal . but lugosi be always good he be creepy and sinister enough to keep you interested at least enough to keep watch him . the woman play the reporter be just a terrible actor . she have no emotion whatsoever and she just deliver her line like a machine gun and spew them out as quickly a she could . everyone else pretty much blew too and when it come to be good actor . but this thing be watchable and if only for bela lugosi fan . lugosi be always so intense even when the picture be a dog . he must have know he be do terrible picture but maybe he also know that if he give it everything he have a little of that intensity might shine through past all the bad plot and bad act which surround him . and he be right we horror fan will always have a love for bela lugosi . he give it his all every time he be in front of the camera . we do give two fks for you and bela .
