Sherlock Holmes y la voz del terror

Película

Sherlock Holmes y la voz del terror (1942) es la primera de las doce películas de Sherlock Holmes realizados por Universal Pictures. Basil Rathbone y Nigel Bruce repiten sus papeles como Sherlock Holmes y el Dr.. Watson respectivamente. Conjunto universal de la serie en la década de 1940 a pesar del hecho de que la literaria Sherlock Holmes era 60 años de edad en 1914.

In a good deal of the movies, Holmes is fighting the Nazis. Esta película (enlace de afiliado) is set during World War II. The Voice of Terror is a German or German agent, who is committing sabotage against England. The Voice is responsible for several terrorist incidents. A council of ministers has called in Sherlock Holmes to investigate the crimes. Holmes seems to be stumped but is it only an act?

Nigel Bruce, Evelyn Ankers and Basil Rathbone

Evelyn Ankers plays Kitty, who helps Sherlock Holmes in his investigations. She was a staple in the Universal Horror films of the 1940s. Her most notable role was playing Lon Chaney’s love interest in The Wolfman (1943). She married fellow actor Richard Denning in 1942. They would remain married until her death in 1985 at age 67.

Unlike many of the other movies, there is no reference to Moriarty or his henchmen in this film. The film is also much shorter. It comes in at 65 minutes. It is fairly well done but the film is not of the same quality as the Twentieth-Century Fox films.
