Review of The Black Raven (1943) by Richard D — 06 May 2016
A super short and cheap old dark house mystery starring George Zucco. A bunch of people end up at the Black Raven hotel ... money is at stake, people die ... who did it? After an hour of set up, it's rapidly sewn up with an insultingly quick "hey, that guy did it!" ending.
There's a degree of automatic entertainment value to a short flick of this genre with a good lead, but this one fails to stretch anywhere beyond that. Glenn Strange also appears without Frankenstein makeup.
