Synopsis
Brides die on the alter and their bodies are snatched from the morgue by Dr. Lorenz (Bela Lugosi), who needs their blood to keep his 80 year old wife young and beautiful. He is assisted in his gruesome experiments by a household of bizarre characters including a sadistic dwarf (Angelo Rossitto), a monstrous half-witted giant (Frank Moran) and their witchlike mother (Minerva Urecal). A nosy reporter (Luana Walters), who is on the case of the missing corpses, must spend a night of horror in the mad doctor's chamber of torture. Often cited as one of the best and most cohesive of Lugosi's poverty row features, The Corpse Vanishes also stands today as the most horrific of the infamous 1940's "Monogram 9."
