The Ghost Walks (1934)

★★★★★ · Nifty little mystery with gay subtext · ricmarc · 2005-03-26

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Ghost Walks is a nifty little mystery with a great twist, snappy dialog, and best of all a pansy played to the twittery hilt by character actor Johnny Arthur which never demeans or denigrates his character. Mr. Arthur is great in his role of Homer Erskine bringing great comic relief as the secretary of the Broadway producer Herman Wood, played by another great character actor Richard Carle.

Unless you intend to put this on a mobile device you should grab the MPEG1 version. At…

I loved this show. It has all the secret panels in the walls, eyes from a picture some nasty guy watches folks in the den from. People being snatched from beds and closets.
