Review of Doctor X (1932) by D M — 29 Oct 2011

This Pre-Code film featured a masturbation joke early-on. This film is listed as the first color horror. There is a series of murders that lead the police to investigate a local medical research institute.

A journalist is also secretly following this story, and learns that the police let the head of the academy do his own investigation before the officials are let to do their own investigation. The Dr is a able to deduce at least one of his colleagues is guilty, so he uses his super lie-detector machiney thing.

There are some cool graphics with the creepy synthetic flesh which at part looks like the Grandpa in Texas Chainsaw Massacre. There is also a clitoris joke (or at least thats how I took it!).
