Black Magic (1944)
1/10
More Monogram!
19 April 2000
This is yet another low budget Monogram Chan film. I find this to be a dismal attempt to try to re-capture the feeling of earlier films like "Charlie Chan's Secret". It involves seances and a far-fetched plot. In this one, Charlie is assisted by a daughter, Frances, rather than one of his sons. It doesn't add much. The original title, "Black Magic", was later changed to "Meeting at Midnight", perhaps so it wouldn't be confused with the Orson Welles film titled "Black Magic" released in 1949.
