The Phantom Creeps (1949) Sci-Fi (DVD)

Directed by: Ford Beebe, Saul A. Goodkind.

Starring: Bela Lugosi, Robert Kent, Dorothy Arnold.

With a laboratory full of monstrous creations including a giant robot, explosive mechanical spiders, an invisibility belt and a strange meteorite that can stop entire armies dead in their tracks, Dr. Alex Zorka (apparently the hardest working mad scientist around) seeks revenge on those who scoffed at his ideas. Zorka must run the gauntlet between federal authorities and the lethal foreign agents who covet his all-powerful weaponry. This movie version of the 1939 serial spectacular contains a myriad of plot twists and a performance by Bela so charged with enthusiasm that we actually find ourselves rooting for him as he plots mass destruction in his bid to conquer the world.
