16MM SOUND 700 FT REEL The Spook Speaks (1940)
"THE SPOOK SPEAKS"Stars: Buster Keaton, Elsie Ames, Don Beddoe
When a magician, Mordini (Lynton Brent) becomes fearful of his magic secrets being stolen, he hires Buster (Buster Keaton) and Elsie (Elsie Anes) to protect his props. They discover what they assume to be a murder and go into action as amateur detectives, without realizing they are the victims of one of the magician's tricks.
This i...s a politically incorrect, racially sensitive wild comic horror short.
The title is preceded by the theater policy statement demanding the audience be quiet during the film, which adds more humor to this particular film.
Very sharp looking print with titles and replaced end title.
Has splices some of which may need repair due to sprocket jump; however otherwise the print runs smooth and is complete. A good rare find.
Media Mail. Good Luck. No Odors.
