To Heir Is Human (1944)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
Silent film legend Harry Langdon stars in this short as a man who inherits some money but before he can collect it he must fight his way through a creepy dark house. Una Merkel co-stars in this Columbia short, which has some pretty good laughs including a very funny bit involving an electrical bed. This is the first time I've seen Langdon, although I've got three of his silents sitting here. He was pretty impressive here but I'm expecting more from his silents.
As of now the only way to see this short is through collectors and traders.
