 Humphrey Bogart (qv) said of this film: "This is one of the  pictures that made me march in to Jack Warner and ask for more money  again. You cant believe what this one was like. I had a part that  somebody like Bela Lugosi (qv) or Boris Karloff (qv) should have  played. I was this doctor, brought back to life, and the only thing  that nourished this poor bastard was blood. If it had been Jack  Warners blood, or Harrys, or Pops, maybe I wouldnt have minded  as much. The trouble was, they were drinking mine and I was making  this stinking movie."
