Monsoon: In a South Seas bar and brothel called the Isle of Forgotten Sins, rough and tumble sailors Mike Clancy (John Carradine) and Jack Burke (Frank Fenton) meet old Capt. Krogan (Sidney Toler), who talks them into recovering 3 million dollars in gold from a sunken ship. Mike and Clancy become rivals for the bar’s lovely owner, Marge as well as for the riches.
Bluebeard: When seamstress Lucille (Jean Parker) accepts a job designing costumes for charismatic puppeteer and portrait artist Gaston Morrell (John Carradine), she has no idea that he is, in fact, Bluebeard, the infamous serial killer who has been terrorizing Paris. Sparks soon fly between Lucille and Morrell but complications arise when Morell’s previous lover Renee (Sonia Sorel) becomes jealous and must be dealt with according to Morell’s grisly custom.
