Ridiculous childish nonsense B movie for Columbia. Mad professor Boris Karloff is trying to create a Superman in his cellar, teams up with multi functioning Peter Lorre and his crime solving cat whilst (Miss) Jeff Donell tries to fix up the 18th century house as a hotel. Also involved: Maxie Rosenbloom (who might be familiar from Nothing Sacred), Larry Parks, Don Beddoe as 'choreographer'.
Shares certain similarities with Arsenic and Old Lace, i.e. could have easily ripped off elements from 1941 play. Mainly of interest to see Karloff and Lorre together.
