Although made in 1957, The Dead Talk Back was stored away and forgotten until 1993. And to be fair, those in 1957 didn't miss much. The Dead Talk Back is pretty boring, and the only time that the dead actually talk back is at the end of the film. Henry Krasker (Aldo Farnese) is a scientist working on some kind of machine that will allow him to talk to the recently deceased. He lives in a house with an assortment of other people. When one of those people, Renee Coliveli (Laura Brock) is murdered, Krasker sets up the machine to determine who did it. In the meantime however we focus on the police investigation which I wouldn't really mind so much if the movie wasn't focused on this machine that allows people to talk to the dead. On top of that, the film looks pretty cheap, it isn't very interesting, none of the characters are particularly likable, so it makes a pretty good Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode. So check out the MST3K sometime soon.
