Supernatural (1933)
Fans of old horror flicks will absolutely love Supernatural. It’s so campy and overdone, you’ll love to laugh. It’s not supposed to be funny though, and in fact, there are some séance scenes that are quite spooky! If you’re not in the mood to laugh, you’ll probably turn this off. It’s pretty stinky.
Vivienne Osborne gets convicted and executed for murder, but until her dying day, she wants to see her boyfriend and talk to him. He’s a phony séance conductor who’s obviously hiding some criminal activities. Meanwhile, a scientist H.B. Warner believes evil souls can be transferred to live bodies after death, and he fears Vivienne’s will seek a new host after her execution. He tries to conduct an experiment that will prevent the transfer, but (since this is a horror movie) it doesn’t work.
Carole Lombard has just lost her beloved brother, and in her grief, she agrees to see Allan Dinehart, the same séance man connected to Vivienne. Yes, it’s a small world. Carole’s boyfriend comes along for moral support, but he’s not on board and keeps looking for tricks. If you don’t see his name in the credits, you might not recognize the bulky, wavy-haired brunette actor. It’s Randolph Scott! I read recently he chose westerns as his genre of choice because he was told he couldn’t act. Poor guy! Yes, his acting chops in this movie leave much to be desired, but Gary Cooper couldn’t act either; why wasn’t Scottie given better parts early in his career?
