Das Ungeheuer von Chicago (1941)
Susan Webster tauscht das beschauliche Landleben gegen die Großstadt ein und verliebt sich in den charmanten Larry Reed. Schnell folgt die Hochzeit, doch Larry führt sie direkt in die Fänge des skrupellosen Mädchenhändlers Bruhl. Als Susans Bruder Scot nach ihr sucht, gerät er in eine perfide Falle und wird zum Tode verurteilt. Sein Gehirn vermacht er dem zwielichtigen Dr. Parry für wissenschaftliche Experimente. Kurz darauf werden Bruhls Handlanger auf brutale Weise ermordet – ihre Körper zerquetscht, als hätte eine übermenschliche Kraft zugeschlagen. Hat Scot sein Versprechen gehalten und ist aus dem Jenseits zurückgekehrt, um sich an denen zu rächen, die sein und Susans Leben zerstört haben?
