fascinating that these old movies are almost a hundred yrs old. I watched a silent one the other day from 1920, 100 yrs old. wow. Never have humans been able to truly see what life was like a hundred yrs in the past, we live in an amazing time that we take for granted.
Joe Jones you might like the San Francisco 1906 video(s) here on youtube. Talk about a step into the past.
I really enjoyed this! 🙂 Ah,Mr. Wong,a serial killer & a reporter who is assigned to figure out one of the "many mysteries of Confucious." Bela is never a disappointment,whatever character there is to portray,he carries them all very well & in Bela's very own "unique" & "mysterious" way that leaves the audience believing & wanting even more! Gratitude for this great older film,again,a great way to start the weekend with 🍕 Pizza Flix 🍕 😊
I love how Bela jumps out of his skin everyti9me his gong sounds.
Thanks for posting! Bela Lugosi as a Fu-Manchu style villain in a tongue-in-cheek mystery. My first screening. Loved Lugosi in The Corpse vanishes and wish I could have seen his on-stage portrayal of Dracula 'tho the film version was iconic. He is great even in 1941's The Black Cat. Thanks again.
Thank you PizzFlix for the fine copy to watch.
Wallace Ford-- what a CHARACTER! He's become a real favorite of mine in recent years, with each movie I see him in. Probably most famous as "Babe Jensen" from "THE MUMMY'S HAND" (1940). In here, he's like a funnier version of Carl Kolchak. The dialogue between him and his girl is a riot.
Yep. Agreed. Babe Hanson from “The Mummy’s Hand” was a great character.
Thank you for having this available! Love it!
thank you for this old movie I love it take care.
I was born in 1936 so this delightful film is older than me. Happy to say, we have both well together. Thank whoever for making these film available in perpetuity. Future generation will enjoy and appreciate them as well. Kind regards to all old black and white movie lovers. England, February, 2024.
The Mr Wong of Lugosi Isnt't the same of Karloff?, This is like Fu Manchu and the other is like Charlie Chan
not at all karloff's JAMES LEE WONG was chinese american a detective
The main saving grace of this movie is Lotus Long as Moonflower. Just wish she had more screen time. Thanks PizzaFlix!
Great actress - Difficult for Asian folks to get roles - Lotus was amazing in every role I've watched
Thanks for the movie
Wallace Ford, the Swiss Arm Knife of actors.
i can watch almost any movie with lugosi in it, he had something...
Funny, I was thinking the same thing. There’s a scene in this in front of a curtained door where his moves were electric.
Kinda funny
Reporter picking up evidence....contaminated the crime scene....hanging out in the detective bureau...the old days😊
WAY before forensics.
Yes, while the stereotypical Irish cop just sits there watching him & chatting. I'm surprised he wasn't eating corned beef & cabbage, although the reporter said he was going to get him some.🥬🥩🧆
Tks for the really entertaining movie!
Hi Erica 🍕Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you 🍕
17:58 Department of Orientology. There ain't no such woid!
Void, woid, world, word, turd
LOL
grande Lugosi !
Thanks.
The manicurist at the 4:30 mark, calls "Moonflower" to Lotus Long's character-never realized that before, despite watching this movie in it' entirety maybe 10 times in the last few years here on UA-cam.
Good to watch while eating chow mein, Hungarian goulash & Irish stew.🧆🥘🍝🫕🍲🍜🍛 YUM!!
🇹🇼 🇭🇺 🇮🇪
Check out that STREAMLINED new Monogram Pictures intro!! Do you not like it?
Also, be reassured: This is a post-code production and therefor will be found GOOD, CLEAN and WHOLESOME, suitable for the viewing of children even, having no thing whatever of the untoward nor tasteless intruding.
I just cannot hear it even on full volume. Sorry.
Got headphones?🎧
Brilliant
"Can I call you by my last name?"
Boy there's a romantic for ya.
Thanks for watching PizzaFLIX. May the Sauce be with you.
“ Has he been here too.? “ 😁
A weird novelty, as it was directed as though it were a silent film, with ponderous and exaggerated movements.
Mr. Wong is the tallest Asian man I have ever seen. Haha. …. That Bela can really act. It’s like the part flows through his veins!
Gotta love the 30's a Chinese with Dracula's accent.... LOL.
Yes it's great lol
Wong was Chinese of secondary Hungarian extraction and brought up in China. This should explain it any strangeness. This great combo was what made Wong so vicious and clever. This should explain it.
🤣
@@Klester Er .... wasn't Mr Wong a detective played by Boris Karloff ?
---@@parrot0051--- Boris Karloff was Mr James Wong. This was Mr Fu Wong. Two totally different people.
If this is Wong,then it feels so wite,good 🎥😉
Go, Bela!!! Thank you.
The credits say the movie was made in 1935.
Release Date was December 1934. The Roman Numerals you see on the screen is for the copyright, which was January 12 1935.
... I kept waiting for his moustache to crawl up into his eyebrows ...
This video needed English subtitles, CC doesn't understand Bela Lugosi's Hungarian accent
Damn, mister PizzaFlix! Where did you get such a crisp copy with such a sharp image?? I watched this a while back, it never looked this good. I'm not a fan of these characterizations but I definitely prefer Bela's to the other guy's. Classier and more handsome. Plus maybe it's just me but hey! I prefer my politically incorrect characters to have a hot Hungarian accent rather than the English with a lisp version. But that's just me. Hungarian accent? No problem understanding. In comparison, the other guy's eye makeup was truly offensive and racist, and he had way too many speech impediments, I need subtitles, LOL! Downloading... and beaucoup thanks!
Irene, that is for HIM to know, and for us to GUESS about.
The 'other guy' Do you mean Boris Karloff?!
@@stephenater9687 Peter Lorre didn't do that, did he? Mayhaps Warner Oland or Sidney Toler? 🏯⛩️
A cleverly confusing Chinese coin caper-Confucius-maybe.
STILL good sauce two years later @PizzaFlix!
****** it’s a good movie if you’re doing something else too******
Like eating Chinese food?🧆🥘🍝🫕🍲🍜🍛
Love the dictshen in these old movies .
DICTION
This stereotyping would send today's SPINELESS WOKES into a freakin MELTDOWN
Leave your Trumpian politics out of these comments.👽🤑🤮
OMG It's Bela Lugosi as a Chinese bad guy. WOW! LOL He still sounds like... My favorite Dracula.
It is refreshing....no political correctness...."Have you heard of a Chinaman named Wong...have I ever heard of a Chinaman not named Wong.
my dentist was a Dr Wong
PC is Marxism ..eventually , everything is racist.
Like saying about a fat guy, "He's got more chins than a Chinese phone book"?😏🤗
@@deusvolt2146That comment is racist and something Mango Mussolini would say.
Volume too low.
🎧❓
Loads of fun.
This is beyond tongue in cheek--a Chinese with a heavy Hungarian accent,
A mixed Hungsrian-Chinese raised in China.
Thank you for sharing. Lugosi's appearance clearly set diversity in Studio Era casting back AT LEAST a generation. Well, perhaps Hungarians were pleased...
Wait until you see The Mask of Fu Manchu! Now that is a monstrosity of the worst kind and I read that BK mocked the Chinese-American citizens who protested about his performance. No one objected to Bela's cause he kept it classy and not a racist caricature. Plus BK took over Bela's Mr. Wong leftovers and made it a series. Bela was long done with that after he made this film.
@@irened. x
Don't Chinese read/write right to left?
The Mandarin dialect, yes. Cantonese is different.
Dept of Orientology. Too funny.
What do you find funny about it?
@@holmanrw Because it's a Leslie Nielsen-type parody.
Mr. Wong sounds like Dracula.
This was good for about halve , then the film just got STUPID silly. mho
My dad used to have a saying, “It’s so bad, it’s good”. I thought the same thing as you, but still found it entertaining.
@@SDW90808 Like "Plan 9 from Outer Space" or "Ishtar".😕
