Spooks Run Wild (1941)

Monogram Pictures
Directed by Phil Rosen
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Acme)

Leo Gorcey and friends are sent to the country where they end up in Bela Lugosi's spooky mansion. They spend most of the film wandering around through secret passages, bumping into things in the dark, etc. There are the usual East Side Kids lame jokes, many of which at the expense of their black friend, and the stupid intentional mispronunciations. Lugosi hams it up and has a midget sidekick.
