Brand New 2K Master! In a departure from her usual comedy roles, screen legend Carole Lombard (Nothing Sacred, Hands Across the Table) co-stars with western icon Randolph Scott (Western Union, Ride the High Country) in this chilling tale of a woman possessed by a murderer’s dark soul. Roma (Lombard), whose twin brother has recently been murdered, becomes easy prey for a corrupt medium who arranges a séance to conjure up the lost twin’s supposedly troubled soul. Meanwhile, a murderess accused of strangling her lover awaits her fate in the electric chair. Before she dies, she agrees to donate her body to a scientist for his unique life-after-death research. Eerily, the doctor’s first experiment on the now-dead woman occurs at precisely the same time as the séance. In an evil twist of fate, Roma becomes possessed by the murderess’ wicked spirit. In a race against time, the doctor and Roma’s fiancé (Scott) struggle to undo the horrible curse in this compelling, inventive and influential ghost story directed by Victor Halperin (White Zombie)
