Most people who enjoy this movie would have had to be children when it came out.It probably hit the neighborhood theatres in the summer of 1941, although being made the year before.Of course,all h**l was about to break loose in the world.This movie was a perfect "Friday night event" for the young kids who would attend in droves, usually chaparoned by a couple of teen-aged girls.Life was simpler then, and parents frequently let their young kids walk to the neighborhood shows in this fashion. Karloff,Lugosi, and Lorre were the popular bogeymen,and most of us knew they were kindly actors beneath the disguises.I recall receiving fan mail and pictures from all three (probably valuable today but long lost).Interestingly,Kay Kaiser was well known then(from radio)and had a reasonably talented band.I've seen it occasionally over the years,and the naustalgic element always resurfaces.Unfortunately,generations born in she fifties and later might consider it dated and silly.How sad!
