Son of Ingagi

Son of Ingagi is a 1940 American black horror monster film directed by Richard C. Kahn.

Son of Ingagi is about Elanor and Bob Lindsay inheriting the house of doctor Helen Jackson who had just returned from her trip to Africa.

At the Lindsay's wedding, an explosion erupts, which leads most party-goers to investigate with only Eleanor staying at home.

The Lindsays later find that they are beneficiaries in Helen's will, and due to her sudden death they are initially suspected of murdering her.

Bradshaw, the executor of the will, comes to urge them to sell the house, and while rummaging through the desk, he carelessly rings the gong, which summons N'Gina from the hiding place in the cellar.

Spencer Williams' screenplay for Son of Ingagi was based on his own story titled House of Horror.

[4] Alfred N. Sack, whose Dallas, Texas-based company Sack Amusement Enterprises produced and distributed race films, was impressed with Spencer Williams' screenplay for Son of Ingagi and offered him the opportunity to write and direct a feature film.

[5] William's resulting film was The Blood of Jesus (1941) while Son of Ingagi was directed by the white American director Richard Kahn.
