#27

Synopsis

Two American producers want to bring Parisian-style, Grand Guignol, gory plays to a Broadway theater, but the owner refuses to do business with them. They shoot him and take the man's gory makeup secrets manuscript, but he returns from the dead and gets his revenge by swapping out the stage prop acid and red-hot stove with the real things.
