Doctor X (1932)
Doctor Xavier heads a medical research institute that is linked to a series of murders. To save the reputation of his institute, he bargains with the police for an opportunity to discover who the killer is, using his own scientific means.
Lionel Atwill and Fay Wray give excellent performances. Even the bungling reporter, although played somewhat for laughs, is not without charm.
The two colour Technicolor print added to the eerie atmosphere.
