The
Man From Beyond
In this feature-length film Houdini plays the
part of Howard Hillary, a man who, after being frozen for over
100 years in a block of ice, is defrosted and released into
society. Howard's first thoughts upon awaking are of his long
lost love, Felice. Finding a look-alike who he believes is a
reincarnation of Felice, he attempts to gain her love. This,
as it happens, cannot take place until Howard saves her from
the evil man she is about to marry. In the end, Felice realizes
her soul was indeed saved by Howard and the two live happily
ever after. |
