SECRETS OF CHINATOWN 1935 (SINISTER CINEMA)

Interesting filmed in Canada murder mystery.

The story takes place in and around Seattle and Vancouver.

There is a rather large organization of black robed men who are into very serious crimes which includes drug smuggling. These crimes take place all over the world including China.

There are several supernatural elements involved here as well. One is a mysterious coin that is mailed to people who come too close to what the gang is doing. When you receive this coin, you die.

The second involves a man who falls in love with a mysterious white girl who is tied in with the gang, but can disappear at any time. Very odd stuff here indeed.

This is great low budget fun and a unique film for the era in which it was made. It runs about 62 minutes and there are many things that are left unexplained in the movie, but I really don't think you'll care too much This movie is too much fun.

This is a rare film that hasn't received gthe attention it deserves. It's much different than anything else from around the same time. I recommend you check tis out.

The cast includes Nick Stuart, Lucile Browne, Raymond Lawrence and James Flavin.
