The Corpse Vanishes

Hailed as a "deliciously outrageous horror exercise of the 1940s," The Corpse Vanishes features Bela Lugosi as Dr. Lorenz, an evil horticulturist who poisons young brides just before they walk down the aisle with the scent of a mysterious orchid. Bringing them back to his lair in a catatonic state, the vile doctor removes fluid from their glands and transplants it into his wife's body to keep her young and beautiful. When fledgling reporter Pat Hunter (Luana Walters) catches on to Lorenz's scheme, she concocts a false story in order to snoop around his estate but winds up trapped there overnight due to a nasty, sudden storm. Will the innocent news maven become the doctor's next victim, or will his undoing be the biggest break of her career? (Echo Bridge Entertainment)
