Synopsis

Arctic explorers revive a man preserved in ice for a century. Brought back without knowing how much time has passed, he recognises a young bride as the woman he once loved. His insistence disrupts the wedding and draws him into a mystery involving a missing scientist, mistaken identity and the possibility of a connection across generations.

Behind the scenes

Harry Houdini's screen role combines a supernatural mystery with the physical peril expected from his public persona. He performed his own stunts, while Burton King received the directing credit despite publicity that emphasised Houdini's supervision.
