early talkie feature based on a popular stage play. a murder has been committed and a bunch of people hire a medium to conduct a séance to see who the murderer is. while the lights are out there another murder. so it someone in that room. what follows is an obvious and dull and creaky murder mystery. most of the cast overacts to a ridiculous degree. they act like theyre on stage (where you have to overdo things) and it looks silly on screen. most embarrassing is bela lugosi (two years before dracula) who really overdoes it as a police inspector. static direction by tod browning (who was always overrated) doesn not help. for browning and lugosi completists only. i give it a 3.
