Requiem For Paula
21 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Paula the Ape Woman returns yet again(!) now played by Vicky Lane, who is unbelievably restored to life by another crazed scientist(Otto Kruger) who entraps both of his assistants Ann and Don(Amelita Ward and Don Brown) in his diabolical scheme, further helped by his hulking servant Moloch(Rondo Hatten) whose murderous inclinations bring on a police investigation leading right to them, and the hoped for end of this evil...

Needless sequel is rock-bottom fare, indifferently directed by Harold Young. Acquanetta did not return and is missed, though given how poorly used a blank Vicky Lane is, it may be just as well. Poor Rondo Hatten is shamefully wasted here in generic role that he sleep walks through, and film is utterly pointless, contrived and absurd(how many mad scientists are in that area anyway?) lumbering on to its limp anti-climax,(though this was at least the end!)
