THE FACE OF MARBLE-1946-Two doctors perform an experiment that revives a dead man but a storm blows out their equipment and he dies again. Charles Randolph (John Carradine) is an eminent brain specialist. His wife Elaine (Claudia Drake) is a former patient who's life he saved. Their Maria Ouspenskaya like maid Maria (Rosa Rey) uses voodoo to try and make the younger doctor, David (Robert Shayne) fall in love with Elaine. Randolph kills Elaine's great dane Brutus and brings it back to life but now he's more vicious and transparent! When David's girlfriend Linda (Maris Wrixton from THE APE) arrives Elaine gets jealous. Transparent Brutus scares Linda then goes out and drinks the blood of other animals. When Maria accidentally kills Elaine (she was trying to kill Linda) the duo bring her back to life despite Randolph's doubts. Somehow Maria gains control of Elaine and has her kill Randolph. David is charged with his murder. Later Maria sics Elaine on Linda but David arrives in time to break it up. Maria commits suicide and Elaine and Brutus walk into the ocean (?).

William Beaudine directed this Monogram horror story which has a few twists and good acting to take a notch above the studio's usual routine low budget.
