Chandu the Magician

(1932)Directed by William Cameron Menzies, Marcel Varnel71 minAdventure, Science Fiction, Action
“CHANDU.. He Lives on the Screen!”

A scientist has vanished, and with him the death ray he built, in the hands of a man called Roxor (Bela Lugosi) who believes it will make him master of the world. Only Chandu (Edmund Lowe), a hypnotist and yogi who works by suggestion and illusion, stands in his way. Marcel Varnel and William Cameron Menzies set the chase on a single fragile hope: if Chandu fails, Roxor owns the weapon.
