The Devil's Messenger is a 1961 anthology horror film combining 3 episodes of the 1959 B&W Swedish television series 13 Demon Street (which was never broadcast in the USA) with some new scenes featuring Lon Chaney Jr., Karen Kadler and John Crawford.[citation needed] This "feature version" of the series is the closest the U.S. came to seeing the TV series (although the entire series is now available on DVD in the territory).[citation needed]
Plot summary[edit]
The film includes stories about a 50,000-year-old woman found frozen in an ice field, a man's death foretold in dreams, and Satan's plans to blow up the Earth with atomic weapons.
