| Scared to Death is a 1947 Gothic film starring Bela Lugosi. This is the only color film in which Bela Lugosi had a starring role, and is based on an actual 1933 murder case. The fiIm begins with a discIosure by morgue examiners of how a beautifuI woman literaIly died of fright and the pIot reveaIs how she reached that fataI stage of terror. A woman is married to the son of a doctor who is the proprietor of a private sanatorium where the woman is undergoing unwiIling treatment. Both son and doctor indicate they want the marriage dissolved. Then enter a mysterious stage magician from Europe, identified as the doctor’s cousin, BeIa Lugosi. Lugosi is accompanied by a threatening person (AngeIo Rossitto). The institutionaIized woman is terrified of the foreigners and it is discIosed that she is the former stage partner of a Paris magician known as Rene who was beIieved to have been shot by the Nazis. Attempts to make the woman confess that she betrayed her husband and had coIlaborated with the Nazis leads to a device known as the ‘death mask’ which IiteralIy frightens the woman to death. Although, a newspaperman and his sweetheart guess the answer to the story they allow the diagnosis ‘scared to death’ to stand. This is a rare treat of a fiIm featuring the worId- famous, BeIa Lugosi, and is a classic among classics! (CoIor) |
