Harum Scarum producer wanted blood after movie lost whopping $900,000
ELVIS PRESLEY turned to the drugs that would kill him to numb his torment after he was kidnapped, tortured and terrorized by a gang of thugs sent by a twisted producer who blamed the rocker for the failure of his movie.
The Hound Dog singer’s agonizing nightmare is revealed in a secret trove of never before-seen, authenticated letters he penned to his closest confidante, Hollywood spiritual adviser Carmen Montez, almost 50 years ago.
Now, the bombshell just released book Letters from Elvis, by acclaimed author Gary Lindberg, reveals the horrific revenge B-list producer Sam Katzman took on The King for his part in the box office bomb Harum Scarum. The 1965 flick cost $2.4 million to shoot — and lost a whopping $900,000!
The unspeakable horror unfolded in 1968 when Elvis and close friend Marlon Brando were snatched by gun-toting goons from the singer’s Hillcrest home in L.A., writes author Lindberg, who spent decades researching his book.
The stars recognized one of the goons, “Marcus,” as a Katzman henchman.
