Lon Chaney Jr. plays college professor Norman Reed, who is visiting a South Seas island researching his new book, when he chances upon meeting the daughter(played by Anne Gwynne) of a former(now deceased) colleague, who has joined a native(and superstitious) tribe. He marries her and takes her back home to his college, where he and his book are welcomed back warmly, though an old flame(played by Evelyn Ankers) is dismayed by the new wife, and begins a subtle campaign of vengeance to drive her away, though she underestimates the power of "voodoo magic" and belief... Pretty good film has fine acting(especially Ankers) and an imaginative script, leading to a most clever ending, even if it's too short to fully realize its potential.
