i buy this film be an avid classic collector especially of some of the old horror actor like lugosi and zucco ( a great arch fiend such a the role of dr. moriarity in some sherlock holmes endeavor ) i find this movie try to hard to be scary and campy . although it have an aura of the gumshoe mystery to it you could easily get the feeling that the film be almost plotless . however and be lugosi only color film it wasn not so bad that i wouldn not have it in my collection . i rat it a hesitant 4 ( i debate with a 5 ) .
