Rating: - Separate From The Box Set...
The title is often confused with two other films with the same moniker; the Sherlock Holmes final series entry from 1946, featuring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce and the 1980 Brian De Palma film. I always wondered why they didn't include this film in the box set of Michael Shayne collection. It was one of the most enjoyable stories from the series. This, and 1942's- "The Man Who Wouldn't Die", which is a part of the box set. I have a feeling that there won't be any more Shayne films put out...must ... Read More
Rating: - Dressed to Kill
In my recent Amazon package of Fox's latest noir titles favorites was a flyer announcing the Michael Shayne Collection Vol 1 to be released in 2007, no month given. Neither were any titles listed so I can't tell you if they will include the Lloyd Nolan early titles or the later Hugh Beaumont (Beavers Dad, "Leave it to Beaver) titles...In that they specify Vol 1; one could presume there's going to be a Vol II and so on...one would hope. Probably depends on how Vol I sells.
Rating: - DRESSED TO KILL
THE STORY WAS ABOUT AVERAGE FOR A MANTAN MORELAND MOVIE AND WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH BETTER HAD NOT PARTS OF THE MOVIE BEEN OF SUCH POOR QUALITY - PARTS WERE ALMOST ALL DARK GREY WITH THE IMAGES BARELY DISCERABLE.
Rating: - "Somebody's always screaming around this flophouse."
Just to show you (and myself) how little I know, the character of Michael Shayne, created by author Brett Halliday, has been around quite a while, appearing in over 50 novels, numerous films in the 40s, had his own mystery magazine, appeared in three radio programs, had a television series, and even his own comic book...and I never heard of him until last night, when I watched this film, titled Dressed to Kill (1941). Directed by Eugene Forde (Charlie Chan's Murder Cruise, Michael Shayne: Private Detective), ... Read More
Rating: - Classic B Movie Comedy/Murder Mystery
Everyone knows Mike Shayne, everyone likes Mike Shayne...cops, chorus girls, tailors, lushes, janitors, hotel clerks. Mike is a good natured, smart private eye, maybe not too well educated but shrewd as they come. He doesn't break too many rules, but he's ready to bend them till they creak. If you get yourself murdered, try not to leave any good cigars in the humidor. A few might go missing once Shayne walks through the room. One afternoon, while trying to convince his girlfriend he's ready for marriage, he hears ... Read More
