mark.waltz OK, so there's no Scooby, but there's definitely a Shaggy in the form of Arthur Lake, aka Dagwood Bumstead. He's on his honeymoon with fellow radio actress Lynne Roberts at his family's hotel where he insists he's found a corpse. The staff and guests (outside their obnoxious radio star costars) are a creepy bellhop (Matt Willis) and a grouchy old lady (Ida Moore) who suddenly turns into a girlish flirt when the sun goes down. Roberts is jealous of sexy radio actress Janis Carter who ends up in several precarious predicaments with the befuddled Lake. More unbelievable twists take place, twisting this until the audience is as dizzy watching it as Lake is experiencing it.After six years of Blondie films, Lake got a new character to play, but outside of a different name and career, Lake is basically playing the same character. This is comedic nonsense with some very amusing moments, particularly with Ida Moore, unfortunately unbilled who is first seen being cute insulting everybody then gets Lake to push her on a swing then skips back to the motel. Later, she gets him alone for a buggy ride. It's moderately fun for childlike cartoonish farce, worth a checkout, but I don't think this holds up past one viewing, outside maybe re-watching Ms. Moore's scenes. Everything this classic character actress does is worth watching over and over. The lack of chemistry between Lake and Roberts is very evident, and they really share very little time on screen either, making me think that the director noticed it too.
Norm-30 A murder occurs in a hotel. I dunno where they got the title, but there is NO "ghost" or supernatural happenings of ANY kind! Also, Arthur Lake plays his usual "Dagwood" (dumbell) character, and it's torture watching him.Should've been a "lost" film!
