Re: Looking for an old film

None of the Chan films I know of have any zombies in it. Are you sure it was a Charlie Chan film? Perhaps you are thinking of the film "Revenge of The Zombies" which featured Mantan Moreland. He played a character name Jeff in that movie. Perhaps in seeing him and linking to the character of Birmingham Brown you made a connection to Charlie Chan.

You might be right whaere can I ge Revenge of the Zombies the movie, I just bought 42 Charlie Chan movies and remember the zombie but it wasn't in the package.

Re: Looking for an old film

Well I have all of the existing CC films, There are
none with zombies in the cast. There are however two
films which come to mind that you may be thinking of
"King Of The Zombies" from 1941 & "Revenge Of The
Zombies" from 1943...both were done at Monogram and
feature in the cast, Mantan Moreland as Jeff. Of course
Mantan was in several CC films as Birmingham Brown.
Im thinking you possibly are confusing these films
with some of the CC series....
Hope this helps

Re: Re: Looking for an old film

Dear Mike and Chris,

I think that the two of you hit the nail on the proverbial head. It was probably one or even both of these films that Maria was thinking of. I see this, if so, as a tribute to Mantan Moreland's lasting association with the Chan film legacy.

Sincerely,
Rush
