The Man From Beyond - 1922 - 5/10

Harry Houdini silent.
Legendary escape artist made a number of films, but this was not his best.
Houdini, discovered in an Arctic shipwreck is chopped out of a huge chuck of ice.
After thawing, he revives, and it turns out he has been there since 1820. 100 years.
In no time flat, he finds a female who resembles his long lost flame.
Plot detours into reincarnation territory, one of Houdini’s obsessions.
A cliff hanging sequence (literally) and swim near the top of Niagara Falls are highlights.
