The Mad Ghoul
A Sensation in Horror!
Directed by James P. Hogan
Produced by Universal Pictures
A pulpy 1940s mad-scientist horror film that uses supernatural transformation and murder as the engine for a twisted love triangle.
A university chemistry professor experiments with an ancient Mayan gas on a medical student, turning the would-be surgeon into a murdering ghoul as part of a plan to steal his lover.
