The Frozen Ghost (1945) Poster

*** out of 5

Ah, yes, the classic wax museum horror story motif.  It's been put to better use in better films, but the ever-burning furnace and the glowering stare of Martin Kosleck add plenty of menace to the film.  Lon Chaney as the hypnotist who is led to believe he is killing people with his eyes has one of his better roles in the Inner Sanctum series here, and the plot, if a bit over-comlicated at least manages to be interesting.
