The Ape (1940) starring Boris Karloff

The Ape is an unusual horror film. It has a kindly doctor (Boris Karloff), who’s working on a cure for polio. So, that’s good, although his cure requires human spinal fluid. He has a strong affection for Frances Clifford, suffering from polio. The audience never finds out why, but that’s okay. Then, a circus gorilla escapes. A rather vicious gorilla, that’s terrorizes the townspeople. And it breaks into the doctor’s home!
