OVERLOOKED FILMS: SOME MARCH MADNESSS

I'm not a sports-oriented person, although I used to follow the Red Sox on occasion -- March Madness doesn't mean the same thing to me as it might to others.  Anyway, here's a bit of alternative madness for your March.

From 1942, Johnny Downs, George Zucco, Anne Nagel, and Glenn Strange in The Mad Monster:

From 1940, Son of Inagi -- the first Black horror film and featuring a female mad scientist:

Finally, not madness, but a little bit of March -- Colonel March of Scotland Yard, that is.  Here's the July 17, 1956 episode of the television show that starred Boris Karloff as the title character.  Two interesting things here:  first, Colonel March is based on the character created by John Dickson Carr and second, the show began in 1954, then skipped a year and returned in 1956 for a total of 26 episodes.

  1. It really worries me that they say April is the cruelest month because I can't take any more.
