{"product_id":"murder-in-the-museum-mod-dvd-movie","title":"Murder In The Museum (MOD) (DVD MOVIE)","description":"Sphere Museum is the home for a sleazy and bizarre collection of human freaks, sexy dancing girls and unnatural oddities. Hidden in the dark backstreets of a large metropolis, the sideshow caters to those who are looking for some cheap thrills and lurid entertainment. City Councilman Blair Newgate and Police Commissioner Brandon, both running for mayor, jointly pay a visit to the seedy museum hoping to bust the establishment which is presided over by a sinister professor and his corrupt sidekick. When Newgate is shot dead during the visit, clever newspaperman Jerry Ross and the Police Commissioner's pretty niece Lois join forces to solve the mystery. Hanging in the balance is the life of Commissioner Brandon, who has now become the primary suspect! \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eMurder In The Museum\u003c\/i\u003e (a.k.a. \u003ci\u003eFive Deadly Vices\u003c\/i\u003e) is a poverty row Hollywood whodunit that takes aim at the seedier side of life, inspired by the notoriety of Tod Browning's controversial classic \u003ci\u003eFreaks\u003c\/i\u003e released the year before. With a gritty voyeuristic realism and sleazy side-show atmosphere, \u003ci\u003eMurder In The Museum\u003c\/i\u003e delivers street-tough dialogue and a downbeat mood reflecting the Depression-era that spawned it. This is one of Melville Shyer's few full directing credits, having enjoyed a long career as one of Hollywood's premiere assistant directors. His work includes such thrillers as \u003ci\u003eFrankenstein Meets The Wolf Man\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSon Of Dracula\u003c\/i\u003e and several Sherlock Holmes films. Look for Mexican-born actor and knife-thrower Steve Clemente, who tossed sharp objects in numerous films (including \u003ci\u003eKing Kong\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMost Dangerous Game\u003c\/i\u003e) throughout the 30s and 40s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"COLOR: #0000ff\"\u003eDVD Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Rated:  NR\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Runtime:  1 hours,  4 minutes\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Encoding: Region 1(US \u0026amp; Canada)\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Originally Released:  1\/1\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u0026gt;Label:  Alpha Video\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStarring: Phyllis Barrington; John Harron; Henry B.
