Mismatch Movie Never Meshes Mystery, Comedy, and Terror
A cobbled together Mismatch of Comedy, Mystery, and a Touch of Terror. An early John Farrow Film whose Career had some Highlights in Film-Noir and other Genres. Boris Karloff is given a Non-Monster Role and He makes the Best of it.
But, for some Odd Reason the Best Parts of the Movie are Glossed Over in quick Flashbacks and give way to Irritating, Dated, Date Comedy and some Unappealing Characters. A few Scenes have an Edge of Violence and a Stylish Darkness, but the Movie cannot Recover from the Weak Elements.
A Movie dismissed by many and is really only Recommended for Completists and the Curious. There are some Things to See here but they Come at a Heavy Price. Enduring the Embarrassment of the Silly Stuff and a Combination of Elements that Never Mesh is Burdensome.
