Some fun big names in this one.... Bela Lugosi was in EVERY horror film in the 1930s and 1940s. Huntley Gordon, Charles Mailes, and George Meeker co-star in this who-dunnit from 1935. Henry Mowbray is "Chief Nelson", who has to figure out what's going on. and keep an eye out for Hattie McDaniels, a couple years before Gone with the Wind! the dead man had some new inventions on the brand new television broadcast media, and that could be the reason. and Charles Mailes was married to Claire McDowell, who play husband in wife in the film. pretty good stuff. Directed by Cliff Sanforth, who directed a whopping FOUR films, so there aren't any oscar awards in his list.
