Review of The Mask of Fu Manchu (1932) by Bill T — 24 Apr 2013
A pretty wild film., almost comparable to the Universal horrors, that has Boris Karloff as Manchu wanting to get his hands on a mask and sword supposedly owned by Genghis Khan. A trio of British explorers try mightily to keep it away from them, but Manchu and his plethora of traps are too much for them.
This has a great serial feel, wondering how are heroes are going to get out of this mess, and has an edge of nastiness to it. The ending is somewhat lame, but oh well, still worth watching.
