Supernatural (1933)
1933, Not rated, 1933 min. Directed by Victor Halperin. Starring Alan Dinehart, Carole Lombard and Vivienne Osborne.
A plane crash took Carole Lombard too young – only 33, she was flying back from a war bond rally – but her all too brief career was impactful enough to put her on the metaphorical Mount Rushmore of screwball comediennes. That’s what makes this Victor Halperin horror so intriguing: Carole Lombard – in a horror movie? Part of Austin Film Society’s ongoing Essential Cinema series exploring pre-Hays Code pictures, Supernatural stars Lombard as a socialite possessed by the spirit of a serial killer who is seeking revenge on the man – a fake medium – that turned on her. Spooky stuff from such a funny lady. – Kimberley Jones
