The Spanish/Mexican Autopsy of a Ghost might have escaped our notice altogether had not a company called Sinister Cinema made it available to the home-video market. In this uneasy mixture of comedy and horror, a mad scientist uses dead bodies to create a race of zombies. Basil Rathbone, making his very last screen appearance, goes through the motions as the scientist. Also on hand are international-production habitues Cameron Mitchell and John Carradine, pretending to be genuinely interested in the grim goings-on. Currently available prints of Autopsy of a Ghost are available in Spanish only, with no English subtitles.
