[Martin Altmann]

Hi Doug,

perhaps that creative inventor saw this serial movie:

Phantom Creeps, chap.3
- Crashing towers


Starring: BELA LUGOSI, ROBERT KENT, DOROTHY ARNOLD 
 
 Synopsis: Mad scientist conducts bizarre experiments and developing secret
weapons of warfare, such as an invisibility belt, an 8-foot robot, and a
mechanical homing-spider that, upon contact, explodes in a puff of poison
gas.

In this episode, the mad scientist desperately attempts to guard a meteorite
fragment that gives him an unlimited energy source for his mad schemes.
Pro-mankind scientists invent a meteorite detector and U.S. Military
Intelligence agents use it to capture the fragment. While driving back to
headquarters the box housing the fragment is opened, unleashing its
unspeakable power. Meanwhile mad plan for world domination continues.
