Kay Kaiser meets Boris Karloff, Peter Lorre and Bela Lugosi. This is probably the only time the three starred together in a movie and it's the interaction of the three horror vets that makes this film worth seeing.
Who was Kay Kaiser? A band leader with a very popular radio show. It was off beat and full of double talk and music. Kaiser's career last for only a short time before he decided to give up Hollywood and move back home to North Carolina.
Here the show is on the screen as Kay and his band end up stranded in a house where the three kings of horror are wandering about. Its standard fair but everyone milks it for all they can and for the most part it's a good, if too long by 20 minute horror comedy musical.
If you run across it on TCM or one of the other oldie stations give it a shot. Its a good 97 minutes. 7 out of 10.
