Taxi Spooks

Year: 1929

This reckless cab driver sparks off a series of comical and hilarious gags. It isn’t long before the company’s inspector soon gives him a real dressing-down. The taxi splutters and gives a rough time to its customers. An automaton, the inspector’s wife’s double, pays for it.

A succession of chases, pranks, punches follow up one after the other. A whacky film from beginning to end with an incomparable punch line!
