(DVD, Bell Productions)
Sid Noel is Dr. Morgus, a goofy scientist living in a French Quarter garret apartment in New Orleans with his silent sidekick Chopsley and hypnotized girlfriend Zelda. He invents an "instant people" machine that turns people into dirt and back again. A newspaper reporter tries to invent a story by submitting Morgus' invention to the United Nations, but a foreign spy steals the information. Morgus is invited to the country where he turns all of their spies into dirt in order to smuggle them into the country. It backfires back in New Orleans when the crate of dirt is used to make cement. Interesting today mainly for glimpses of early 60s New Orleans, including the famous burlesque performer Chris Owens on Bourbon Street. The DVD is anamorphic widescreen and a treat for Morgus fans everywhere.
