Zita Johann is lovely as the reincarnated princess and Edward Van Sloane is on hand to stop Karloff, if possible. Simply one of the greatest films ever made in the Universal library, it proves you don't need flash and glitz to make a great story. The modern day remakes of this films are crap geared to a generation who has the attention span of a housefly. I cannot recommend this enough!!
