TORTURE SHIP(1939)
In the set: Mad Scientist Theater
IMDb.com says this was 57 minutes long, but
this copy of the movie is only 48 minutes!!
A ship full of criminals under the "loving"
care of a mad doctor are being experimented
on for an unknown reason!! This appears to
start way after the movie actually does which
makes understanding the whole thing nigh on
to impossible!! C
From a reviewer from IMDb.com:
Torture Ship (1939)
** (out of 4)
A mad doctor puts criminals aboard his ship
so that he can do strange experiments on
them trying to figure out what's wrong.
This film was directed by Victor Halperin
who previously made White Zombie, Supernatural
and Revolt of the Zombies. Overall the film
isn't too bad but there's really not too much
action or horror in the film's short 50-minute
running time. Lyle Talbot plays the hero and
he always brings some "B" movie charm to a
film but that's about it. Mixing the horror,
sci-fi and gangster genres together should
have worked better. Based on a story by Jack
London. - Michael_Elliott
