Description
Series host Jim Towns is joined by returning guest co-host David Ullman for a 90-minute deep dive into a unique and underappreciated piece of undead noir cinema: as The Borgo Pass Horror Podcast presents The Return of Dr. X! Released by Warner Bros. in 1939, this film features silver screen icon Humphrey Bogart in his ONLY horror role as Marshall Quesne aka Dr. Maurice Xavier: a pathological surgeon who was sent to the electric chair for his hideous experiments--then brought back by medicine to a form of half-life, hunting for victims with his same rare blood type. Brash reporter Walter Garrett (Wayne Morris) and his friend Dr. Michael Rhodes (Dennis Morgan) must race to solve the mystery of Dr. X, and save lovely Joan Vance (Rosemary Lane) before she becomes the next victim to fall under Quesne's scalpel.
