fascinating that these old movies are almost a hundred yrs old. I watched a silent one the other day from 1920, 100 yrs old. wow. Never have humans been able to truly see what life was like a hundred yrs in the past, we live in an amazing time that we take for granted.

I really enjoyed this! 🙂 Ah,Mr. Wong,a serial killer & a reporter who is assigned to figure out one of the "many mysteries of Confucious." Bela is never a disappointment,whatever character there is to portray,he carries them all very well & in Bela's very own "unique" & "mysterious" way that leaves the audience believing & wanting even more! Gratitude for this great older film,again,a great way to start the weekend with 🍕 Pizza Flix 🍕 😊

Wallace Ford-- what a CHARACTER! He's become a real favorite of mine in recent years, with each movie I see him in. Probably most famous as "Babe Jensen" from "THE MUMMY'S HAND" (1940). In here, he's like a funnier version of Carl Kolchak. The dialogue between him and his girl is a riot.

Yep. Agreed. Babe Hanson from “The Mummy’s Hand” was a great character.

Thanks for posting! Bela Lugosi as a Fu-Manchu style villain in a tongue-in-cheek mystery. My first screening. Loved Lugosi in The Corpse vanishes and wish I could have seen his on-stage portrayal of Dracula 'tho the film version was iconic. He is great even in 1941's The Black Cat. Thanks again.

Wait until you see The Mask of Fu Manchu! Now that is a monstrosity of the worst kind and I read that BK mocked the Chinese-American citizens who protested about his performance. No one objected to Bela's cause he kept it classy and not a racist caricature. Plus BK took over Bela's Mr. Wong leftovers and made it a series. Bela was long done with that after he made this film.

Damn, mister PizzaFlix! Where did you get such a crisp copy with such a sharp image?? I watched this a while back, it never looked this good. I'm not a fan of these characterizations but I definitely prefer Bela's to the other guy's. Classier and more handsome. Plus maybe it's just me but hey! I prefer my politically incorrect characters to have a hot Hungarian accent rather than the English with a lisp version. But that's just me. Hungarian accent? No problem understanding. In comparison, the other guy's eye makeup was truly offensive and racist, and he had way too many speech impediments, I need subtitles, LOL! Downloading... and beaucoup thanks!
