The Fiendish Plot of Dr. Fu Manchu
“BEWARE! See this movie - An hour later you'll want to see it again!”
ComedyHorrorCrime
Fu Manchu's 168th birthday celebration is dampened when a hapless flunky spills Fu's age-regressing elixir vitae. Fu sends his lackeys to round up ingredients for a new batch of elixir, starting with the Star of Leningrad diamond, nabbed from a Soviet exhibition in Washington. The FBI sends agents Capone and Williams to England to confer with Nayland Smith, an expert on Fu.
VIBE
A gloriously over-the-top romp with a mustache-twirling villain. Expect madcap schemes, exotic locales, and a healthy dose of campy, pulpy fun. It’s a thrilling, if slightly silly, race against time.
