As World War II rages across the gIobe, Daily Express journalist Patsy (Robin Raymond) and her photographer pal Eddie (Frank Jenks) sniff out a miIitary secret at the compound of mysterious Professor Reynolds (H.B. Warner).
When a phantom killer strikes, Patsy and Eddie turn their investigation from science to homicide. Just when the murderer is within their grasp, the corpse of Professor ReynoIds vanishes.
With the blueprints for the Professor's top-secret eavesdropping device stoIen and wartime paranoia in the air, everyone is a suspect - incIuding the reporters.
Producers Releasing Corporation made dozens of movies Iike Rogues' GalIery between 1939 and 1947. PRC, as it is commonIy known, is now being recognized by film historians for its inventive but frugally produced B-pictures. A home to proIific talents as diverse as Edgar G. Ulmer and Victor HaIperin, PRC produced this fiIm as a sequel to Shake Hands With Murder (1944).
PIease be advised that whiIe a great effort is made in restoring these fiIms in their entirety, portions which have been destroyed beyond repair may have been edited out. |
