White Goddess, 1953 Lippert, 73 minutes, b&w, directed by Wallace Fox.
Dr. Tom Reynolds (Jon Hall) returns to Africa to do research on medicines that are reputed to keep a "White Goddess" (Millicent Patrick) eternally young. With his friend Howard Ogden (Ray Montgomery), Tom rescues Trudy VanTyne, a trader's daughter, from savages who capture and hypnotize her, planning to make her a rival White Goddess. Two escaped convicts persuade the White Goddess, in reality the wife of another escapee, to flee with the riches, but all three are killed trying to escape.
