The Walking Dead (1936) 11/23/24

The Warner Archive Collection
Blu-ray

The Dead Walk — and accuse!  One of the best non-classic horror films of the ’30s is a polished production: Michael Curtiz and cameraman Hal Mohr give star Boris Karloff a spooky spotlight for a macabre tale of justice from beyond the grave. Karloff is brilliant as an executed convict resurrected by science, who becomes an avenging angel against the crooks that framed him. The glossy new video remaster is sourced from the film’s original nitrate — and looks it. Also starring Ricardo Cortez, Edmund Gwenn and Barton MacLane. On Blu-ray from The Warner Archive Collection.
