Often referred to as the first Chinese horror film," Song at Midnight" is a loose adaptation of the novel" The Phantom of the Opera"( Le Fantôme de l'Opéra) by Gaston Leroux, though the film injects a significant political subplot involving the leftist revolutionary movement to the original story. " Song at Midnight" did not easily evade the film censorship of Kuomintang, and its serious punishment to films dealing with horror or gods and spirits, or" superstition and heresy" at that time. In order to successfully evade censorship laws in China at the time, the director Ma- Xu Weibang, with a passion to maintain his creation, visited Tian Han several times to figure out how to better process the script to be approved under censorship. <SEP> The Horn Blows at Midnight( 1945) is a comedy fantasy film directed by Raoul Walsh, and starring Jack Benny. Following its poor box- office, Benny often exploited the film's failure for laughs over the next 20 years in his radio and television comedy series" The Jack Benny Program", making the film a known entity to his audience, even if they had never seen it. " The Horn Blows at Midnight" was Benny's last feature film as a lead, although he would continue to do cameo appearances in films for many years. " The Horn Blows At Midnight" had the misfortune to be released only eight days after the death of U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt. This may have contributed to its poor reception, although the film's negative reviews might have also impacted it, as the classic Rodgers and Hammerstein musical" Carousel", also dealing with the afterlife, opened on Broadway at roughly the same time and became a hit. <SEP> Alarm at Midnight or Help!
