Howdy again, I suggested APE (1976 Korean) last time. Now presenting The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake (1959). Watched this last night and could not stop making comments. The film was released (by UA) the year before Columbia released "13 Ghosts" and you can see that Castle took a lot of his production ques and "old dark house" memes from this film. It starts with some hokey floating skull effects (al la 13 ghosts") and a great Amazonian headhunter with his mouth sewn shut. The detective in the film moves about 1.5x slower than the rest of the film (WFT?). Direction is fairly tight, but the (relatively) lush sets, flubs (boom mike shadow - plywood skull cabinet in marble & gilt tomb, direct questions asked but never answered and overlooked) make this a perfect target. The "comedy of threes" (and fives) abound. Not to mention that the antagonist is a two hundred year old witch doctor who sewed a white man's head on his native body (the horror). Anyway. a great old B movie to watch and an easy target for Riff/MYST3000. - Best Carl
