(1940, Upgraded 10/28/21) Tod Slaughter, Sylvia Marriott, Geoffrey Wardwell, Hillary Eaves. Many consider this to be Tod's best film. It's sooo gothic and fill with rich macabre goings-on. Tod's a maniac (of course) who falsely claims an inheritance in a mysterious mansion after bumping off the rightful heir. There's also a pregnant girlfriend he has to contend with: "I'll make you a bride...a bride of death! heh, heh, heh!" Todd has great fun as he gets his enemies out of his way in a most horrific manner. Based on Wilkie Collins' WOMAN IN WHITE. From a beautiful 35mm print.
