This Saturday, KCET aired the fourth and final of its series of "Dick Tracy" movies, 1947's "Dick Tracy Meets Gruesome." The detective thriller features famed horror actor Boris Karloff as the titular adversary, a corpse-looking gangster in possession of a nerve gas that makes people as stiff as a corpse. (Yes, there's a lot of dead bodies going on here.)
