Reviews
Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.
Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
John Seal Yes, even at 49 minutes, this leaden Warners programmer feels padded. The Nazis are out to steal some top secret thermostats (how exciting is that?) and it's up to Warren Douglas, John Loder and company to put the kibosh on their nefarious plot. There's an absurd song and dance sequence featuring possibly the worst dance troupe ever seen on film and an outrageous performance by Don Costello as 'The Great Rajah', a seedy huckster trying to pass himself off as a Hindu mystic. Filmed on what appears to be three sets on the backlot, this is unsatisfying fare that is barely--VERY barely--a few steps above a Monogram or PRC production, and much less fun. Where's Bela Lugosi when you need him?
NativeTexan Fans of the old "B" "C" and even "D" movies (yes, they made them back then) will enjoy this movie. It was like the television of its day: under an hour and a learning experience for cast and crew. It's fun to see people who later became very well known in early screen roles. This is important history, and of a type that will never be seen again.
