Scream in the Night (DVD, 2003 release) – 1935 – Starring Lon Chaney Jr.
A fast-moving pre-Code crime thriller from the mid-1930s, Scream in the Night delivers shadowy intrigue, newsroom drama, and classic pulp-era suspense. When a series of jewel robberies rocks the city, a determined reporter digs into the case — only to uncover a web of corruption and danger that puts him directly in harm’s way. Featuring an early performance from Lon Chaney Jr., this vintage programmer blends mystery and melodrama with the moody atmosphere collectors love from 1930s B-pictures.
A great pickup for fans of Golden Age crime films, early horror alumni appearances, and Depression-era studio thrillers.
