The Four Skulls of Jonathan Drake (1959)


THE FOUR SKULLS OF JONATHAN DRAKE  (1959)

    Eduard Franz, Valerie French, Henry Daniell
In 1959, this would've appeared at the bottom end of a double feature at the local drive-in. A year or two later, it would've turned up late at night on local television. In fact, it did. It's a faintly amusing creep show about an old family curse and some shrunken heads. Henry Daniell, looking mummified, plays the archeologist who knows how to shrink the heads.
