Fog Island (1945)

 

An inventor recently released from prison invites a group of former business associates to a holiday in his island home, intending to exact revenge on them. 

Average, low-budget crime drama with some Gothic atmosphere.

Halliwell (no star): "Very tolerable minor mystery lifted without permission from Agatha Christie's And The There Were None." 

Maltin*1/2: "Grade B chiller...Zucco and Atwill are potentially terrific team."

Mark of the Vampire (1935)

When a nobleman is murdered, a professor of the occult blames vampires; but not all is what it seems.

Night Monster (1942)

Crime, Inc. (1945)

A crusading reporter uses his friendship with a mobster to expose the machinations of organized crime in his city.

Run-of-the-mill noir crime drama is competently made, but not particularly memorable.

Lady in the Death House (1944)

A young woman is on death row for the murder of a man who was blackmailing her family, although she claims she was framed.

Likable, but highly unconvincing low-budget drama is gloomy and well-played, but otherwise unremarkable.
