Not the pinnacle of German film-making, but acceptable

THE STORY & GENRE -- Sherlock Holmes. Spectral howling soon turns to sleuthing various characters. As with all Holmes tales, we ask, is it genre? Except for the Robert Downey Jr. "steampunk" (sci-fi) movies, and TERROR BY NIGHT (Jack the Ripper), this is as close as Holmes gets to actual genre, so it's all about atmosphere and story-telling.

THE VERDICT -- I'm not going to fuss over this silent film. It's got good set design and camerawork but it's not the Richard Oswald expressionist masterpiece you're hoping to see. It's also not the finest film version of the story. Call me lowbrow if you like, but the 1939 (Basil Rathbone), 1959 (Peter Cushing), and 1988 (Jeremy Brett) installments are better.

Anecdotes
According to the book "The Sherlock Holmes File" by Michael Pointer, a print of this film survived in a Russian film archive. Unfortunately, no additional information had surfaced since the book's publication in the 1970s, so the film was officially considered "lost". Since that time, a print was discovered in Poland in 2009, and has since been restored. It was shown at the San Francisco Silent Film Festival in 2018.
