2 Feature Films- The Devil Bat (1940) & The Phantom Creeps (1939) (2005 DVD) Review
2 Feature Films starring Bela Lugosi! THE DEVIL BAT (1940)- Bela Lugosi plays crazed scientist Dr. Paul Carruthers, who feels he has been treated horribly by the cosmetics companies and sets out to get his revenge. THE PHANTOM CREEPS (1939)- Bela Lugosi stars in this classic Universal serial as Dr. Alex Zorka, a crackpot scientist who invents the "secret element", something so powerful that it catches the attention of the US government as well as spies form (sic) various countries, all of whom scramble to obtain it. Though it ranks as one of the more inventive serials of the era, with its array of quasi-futuristic gadgets as well as an assortment of deranged robots, THE PHANTOM CREEPS is truly so bad that it's good.
