Pifias
When Detective Grant is in the office trying to solve the serial killings; he begins talking to the "Judge" dummy that is sitting on a chair with its back turned to him. After Collins interrupts him and they both leave the office; the dummy comes to life. It turns out that the real killer hid the dummy and took its place sitting on the chair. The puzzling thing is that the film does not explain how the killer manages to enter the Police precinct and the Detective's office without being detected. In addition, why would the killer want to go there and how did the killer in the first place even know the existence of a lookalike dummy. Finally, Detective Grant has been practically living with this dummy so it makes no sense that he couldn't tell even from the back that it was a real human being there. All these factors briefly interrupted the flow of the story.

Citas
Lt. Harry Grant: Funny thing how he always strikes in the rain.
Sgt. Art Collins: Maybe he likes rain. Must be a fish.

Though RKO Radio had trouble turning out successful "A" pictures in the late 1940s-early 1950s, the studio's "B" productions were the best in the business. One of the best was 1949's strange, obsessive film noir Follow Me Quietly, which manages to pack more excitement and sheer entertainment value in 59 minutes than most big-budgeters can accomplish in twice that time. Detective Harry Grant (William Lundigan) is assigned to track down "The Judge," an unknown serial killer. With only a handful of sketchy clues, Grant constructs a faceless dummy to help his men conduct their investigation. The film's "money scene" finds the murderer quietly taking the dummy's place, right under the noses of the entire police force! Logic is not the film's strong suit, but Follow Me Quietly builds carefully to a dynamite finale filmed on location at an LA refinery (shades of White Heat!)
