Terminal Pictures presents...
"Arkham After Midnight"

Chapter Two: "Riddle Me Deadly."

"The Bat-Man" gassed at infamous Arkham Asylum! Drugged! Disoriented! A blurred reality. Now as "mad" as all at Arkham due to queer & curious chemicals of "Scare-Crow." Stuck in a musty old madhouse - meeting his most awful adversaries! Faces stained with suspicions... the deranged royalty of crime and its unsettling clown prince!

A new/old 1920s silent serial using many of Bob Kane, Bill Finger, and Jerry Robinson's original influences smothered in a sickly sweet German Expressionist sauce with extra
shadows on the side.

Tune in next weekend for the shattering conclusion!

Down the rabbithole goes Alice and her darkest, most depressing knight! surreal delirium! Hallucinations! Screaming lunatics! Obsessive supervillains! That amazing
triumph of conceit over technology, the incredible "Bat-Gyro." All this and the sickest final two minutes you ever needed to see as Bats struggles to cope with it all.
