My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Bros.)
Confusing story told in flashback of a gangster and his hidden loot and the people around him who will stop at nothing to get it. He's executed in the gas chamber, but a corrupt doctor brings him back from the dead. There are double and triple crosses, at least two femme fatales and a cop named Portugal who is not very good at his job. It's never credible, and plays more like a melodrama with horror overtones than noir.
