"By Jove, I've GOT it!"

(3 out of 5 stars)
"Four super sleuths are featured in DETECTIVES 10 MOVIE PACK. These little films are still as engaging as they were 60 or 70 years ago. With stars like Peter Lorre, Boris Karloff and the inimitable Basil Rathbone, you simply can't go wrong with this collection of who-dun-its. And if this is your type of film, all of these titles (plus much more) may be found on MILL CREEK ENTERTAINMENT's Mystery Classics 50 Movie Pack Collection.
