"BLACK FRIDAY''"
AT KING'S "Black Friday," heralded as, the newest idea
horror In
pictures, with Boris Karloff and Bela, Lugoel in the starring roles, begins its showing today at the King's Thea
tre.
Different from previous horror Alms both in story and technique. "Black Friday" finds both the stars and their supporting players ap- pearing without the "weird" make- up effects they have used in the past.
A trial of murder unique on the screen is started by Karloff, who as a famous surgeon performing "& daring operation by transplanting criminal part of the brain of a into the brain of a quiet little "college. professor.
Stanley Ridges, celebrated char- acter actor, plays the dimcult role of the profesor whose dual brain. transforms him at times into a ruthless killer. Like Karloff and Lugosi, who appear as master criminals, Ridges achieves. his changes of character entirely by voice and facial expression.
The supporting. cast includes such well known players as Anne Nagel, Anne 'Gwynne, James Craig. Edmund MacDonald Virginia Bris- sac, Paul Fix and Ray Balley.
