Spook
One sheet
The Three Stooges 1953 short film titled Spooks!, a Columbia Short-Subject Presentation.
Summary
The film is a 16-minute black-and-white comedy short notable for being filmed and released in 3-D during the fad of the early 1950s. The plot involves the Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Shemp Howard) as private detectives who are hired to find a missing woman, Mary 'Bea' Bopper (Norma Randall). Their investigation leads them to the mansion of a mad scientist, Dr. Jeckyl (Philip Van Zandt), and his assistant Mr. Hyde (Tom Kennedy), who plan to transplant the girl's brain into a gorilla. The short culminates in typical Stooges fashion with slapstick violence and a pie fight.
