A wonderfully camp Chinatown crime drama. Mr Wong (Bela Lugosi) is after the twelve coins of Confucius, once he has them he will have power of a province of China. To get them he unleashes his goons to kill. Jason Barton (Wallace Ford) is a reporter trying to find out why there are so many murders taking place in Chinatown.
Jason Barton finds out a mysterious Mr Wong is behind the murders. A secret agent from China (Fred Warren) is also looking for Wong. Jason Barton is also pursuing Peg (Arline Judge), who gets involved in his adventures...
Lugosi playing yellowface but with his usual voice and accent was certainly one of the cinematic wonders of the age. A cheap but fast moving film, chock full of dodgy stereotypes of course but taken at face value it is a highly enjoyable romp.
