In the Arizona desert, Professor Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll) is experimenting with growth hormones in the hopes of finding a way to increase the world's food supply. His partner in the project was recently found dead in the desert, suffering from a disease that normally takes years to advance, but, in his case, seems to have afflicted him in only a few days. The local doctor, Matt Hastings is puzzled by the strange case and, with Deemer's recently arrived (and very pretty) assistant, Stephanie "Steve" Clayton, tries to figure out what is going on. When cattle remains are found in the countryside, evidence points to a giant tarantula as the culprit. Starring John Agar, Mara Corday and Leo G. Carroll. You’ll remember Leo G. Carroll as Mr. Waverly from the Man from Uncle series. A monster favorite!
Frank Raymond, grandson of the original Invisible Man, still has the old formula but considers it too dangerous to use, even when Axis agents try to get it. But Pearl Harbor brings him to volunteer his own services as an invisible agent in Germany. Though a bit cold (clothes aren't invisible), his adventures are more comedy than thriller (with occasional grim reminders) as he makes fools of Nazi officials and romances a luscious double agent, in search of Hitler's secret plan... Starring Ilona Massey, Jon Hall and Peter Lorre. A fun WWII movie with the Invisible Man against the Nazis. Now the Invisible Man is a hero, rather than the villain.
An irrigation project in the rural bayous of Louisiana unearths living mummy Kharis, who was buried in quicksand twenty-five years earlier. Now in Louisiana, the mummy Kharis roams the bayou, tormented by his forbidden love for Princess Ananka. Starring Lon Chaney Jr., Peter Coe, and Virginia Christine. The last of the Lon Chaney Jr. mummy movies. Hopefully he can rest in peace until the franchise starts again with Christopher Lee and Hammer Horror.

The third movie in the British series of Invisible Man movies. Virginia Bruce is great as the Invisible Woman!
