The Suicide Club

The Suicide Club, based on a story by Robert Louis Stevenson, was announced in the press as a vehicle for Bela Lugosi. In 1934 the idea was revived by Universal as a vehicle for Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff in the wake of their successful pairing in The Black Cat (1934). Although pre-production promotional artwork was published, the film remained unproduced.
