Flying Serpent, The (1946)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Low budget shocker is pretty much a remake of the much better Bela Lugosi film The Devil Bat. A nutty scientist (George Zucco) uses a prehistoric bird to kill off his enemies. Zucco plays this way too straight to add much camp value, which is the main reason the Lugosi film works better. However, running a short 58-minutes, this film manages to remain entertaining.
This isn't quite as entertaining as the Lugosi film but it's certainly a lot better than Lugosi's sequel, Devil Bat's Daughter.
