Review of The Return of Doctor X (1939) by Kevin N — 23 Jul 2010
Pretty lackluster stuff. This sequel of sorts has little to do with the original Technicolor nightmare and does little to advance the story of Doctor X. Frankly, there's just too much yacking involved, and when there isn't anybody interesting talking the film becomes a bore quickly.
The one point of interest is a young Humphrey Bogart as Doctor X himself; he manages a partly creepy performance as the bunny stroking mad genius back from the dead and saves the film from absolute pointlessness.
