      kevin w More Dead End (Bowery Boys) silliness as they try to help newlyweds into their new digs, only to discover that next door is a haunted mansion. What kind of kooky insanity will ensue now? Bela Lugosi arrives in time to pick up a check, but otherwise has little to do here. Was Ava Gardner in this as well? Fan of their antics = a good time, but kid stuff on the main. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This old black and white film looked like a good watch because it's starred Bela lugosi and Ava Gardner. However, the sound was awful so I couldn't hear the dialogue properly, the two stars parts were very small, and the film itself was very silly Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Audience Member Low-budget in look, and quality, as the supposed comedy is farcical and not very humorous at all. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member lulled into this as it starred Bela Lugosi and ava Gardner but turned out they were bit parts in a dreadful comedy. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member As a chance to see the momentary collision of an incredibly young Ava Gardner just beginning on her way up and The Bowery Boys and Bela Lugosi on their way down this is an okay little hour but it's second (or third) rate in every other way. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member The East Side Kids in "Mystery House"--Propaganda Dead end style!!
