Humphrey Bogart as a mad scientist! Why didn't I think of that?

If you are a fan of Bogart then this is a must see. I mean look at him: http://www.castlemonster.com/images/drxrgb.jpg lol. His introduction was pretty hilarious. Every scene without him is pretty lame and the lead actor is just terrible. Somewhat charming but the only reason to see this is for Bogie.

Lame horror "comedy." Bogart was fun, though he played it a little flat, but the Wichita guy was hopeless. Musical score was an additional irritant. Fortunately it only went 62 minutes (any longer and I would've needed one of Dr Flegg's treatments myself). The (newspaper) morgue kid was played by either Lenny or Squiggy (I couldn't tell which).

It's not a great movie but it's fascinating to watch. Seeing Humphrey Bogart in such a role is mind-bending.

Estreava há 80 anos em New York. Não é todo dia que vemos Bogie num filme de horror, mas esse aqui é bem bobinho, a vantagem é que el só tem uma hora. No archive.org (https://archive.org/details/PhantasmagoriaTheater-RevengeOfDoctorX893)

A sequel to Doctor X in name only, and it's actually a bit better. The lead isn't annoying and it helps to have Bogart show up halfway through, even if he doesn't have a whole lot to do. Mostly, I enjoyed the premise which is simple but well executed.

I know he hated doing a horror role like this, but I certainly wouldn't be without experiencing the awesome slight of mad scientist Humphrey Bogart as a walking corpse draining people of blood!!!

Painfully bad sequel to the sublime Doctor X. Bogart is just goofy as hell and not menacing in the least. Just really really awful.

Bland, middle of the road B movie fare. Worth seeing for Bogie's only horror appearance; he's very good, but it's certainly not one of his more memorable films.

Surprisingly fun for a low-budget programmer. None of the actors just walk through their roles, as they could reasonably have been expected to do, especially Bogart, who delivers a swell performance from under his white fright make-up.
