Hello and welcome everyone. In today's film from 1934 and called House of Mystery, the only mystery that will be, is how you sat through it. I'm just kidding or am I, no I'm kidding alright, I'll behave. Today's tale is set first in 1913, India. Where our main character John "Pren" Prendergast, an archeologist is at a temple of the great Kali. Unlike the King Tut curse, this deity is not monkeying around with having her temple violated and her priest are on it. Fast forward twenty years to the U.S. and we find Prendergast a rich man but partially paralyzed. Living in a big house with his companion Chanda and his nurse Ella. One day his backers from that time in India, come to collect on their investment. Why did they wait twenty years? Beats me, let's eat a banana and just go with it. Prendergast tells them that the "spirit of Kali" will kill them as she did with others he try to share his wealth with. So what to do, what to do. Well hold a séance, that always helps. Well let's just say the spirits didn't want to hear it and send a great ape to give Kali answer. What happens next, well your just gonna have to watch. Staring in this hairy tale we have...Clay Clement as Prendergast, Brandon Hurst as the Priest of Kali, Joyzelle Joyner as Chanda, Verna Hillie as Ella, Ed Lowry as Armstrong, John Sheehan as Smith, Fritzi Ridgeway as Stella, George 'Gabby' Hayes as Fells, Irving Bacon as the police inspector, ??? as the Ape and a few more. So as always, let's sit back, make some banana milkshakes and enjoy. Also thanks so much for watching.
