The Scarlet Claw (1944) starring Basil Rathbone, Nigel Bruce. Sherlock Holmes (Rathbone) and Dr. Watson (Bruce) investigate a mysterious murder in a French-Canadian village. The killing is preceded by a lot of supernatural mumbo-jumbo which Holmes, of course, doesn't buy. The famous detective is, however, surprisingly quick to employ a gun when he spies a suspect in the fog. Much to my disappointment, Holmes does not wear a deerstalker hat. The subtitles are at best adequate, with frequent misspellings and mistakes in grammar. Closed captions are not available. Grade: B
