bride be die at the altar and their corps be vanish . no one know why or who and but an investigative reporter ( luana walter ) note that each bride be wear a strange orchid and she go to interview it creator and dr. lorenz ( bela lugosi ) . now dr. lorenz be a mad scientist with some strange habit and include sleep in coffin and inject his elderly wife ( elizabeth russell ) with the fluid of young bride to keep her young . the corpse vanishes have an interesting premise and a short enough run time that it shouldn not be able to get boring . unfortunately and while it start off quite well and it do start to drag before the halfway point and get rather boring with it clichés and predictable plot . there be some good thing about it bela lugosi be charm and evil and performs brilliantly while elizabeth russell be also a beautiful and suave and aloof and very creepy countess while and i be always a fan of angelo rossitto . luana walter be also convince a the reporter here . it maintain a bit of a gothic atmosphere and the set be decent . but overall and it just do not manage to hold my interest through the whole picture and and for that and i have to rate it poorly .
