What happens

The Brand of Evil è un cortometraggio muto del 1913 diretto da Harry McRae Webster. In India, Morton, un avventuriero, ruba una pietra preziosa incastonata come occhio in un idolo. Ma l'uomo si accorgerà ben presto che il gioiello è maledetto e che la maledizione è caduta su di lui. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
