Night Monster (1942)

"Why don't you have Millie do that, Miss Judd? That's a maid's work, not a housekeeper's. You needn't answer because I know the reason: that spot under your hand is blood and you didn't want anyone to know."

"Blood? Ridiculous."

"Yes, it is ridiculous. It couldn't be blood, but it is. I've seen those spots before and I've seen you trying to scrub them out because you knew what they were. Blood, the whole house reeks of it. The air is charged with death and hatred and something that's unclean!"

Lugosi and Atwill take top billing despite only really having supporting roles (Atwill in particular could be #better described as a cameo) but both are clearly having fun in their roles and nobody is taking this too seriously (how could they?)#gets a little messy in the back half and ends with some crucial weirdness just kind of handwaved away without proper explanation #but I'll forgive it because it's just so concerned with being a silly fun time that of course its brains fall out of the plot. one element #of the plot (a sex pest chauffeur who relentlessly pursues every woman in the film in a sinister fashion) could probably have been trimmed #back but this is still a hugely charming and (to me) entirely irresistible bit of old spooky hokum

TODAY IN GINNY! - November 8 - Robert Homans

Robert Homans (1877) gets into TIG on a technicality. He was a court policeman in THE SPELLBINDER (1939), a film IMDb says Ginny made a short, uncredited appearance in (causing some debate at the Facebook site.) Homans appeared in almost 400 films and about 90% of his roles were either as policemen or their close relatives, watchmen and guards. He even played sheriffs in a western or two. He appeared in THE GRAPES OF WRATH, EAST OF THE RIVER, ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES, and LITTLE MISS THOROUGHBRED.
