SHERLOCK HO:MES AND THE VOICE OF TERROR (1942). After two impressively lavish films from 20th Century Fox, Holmes and Watson found themselves at cost cutting Universal, which for some reason decided to move Holmes into the present and battle against Nazis and enemy agents
! This one is very heavy handed on propaganda and You'll be mystified at Basil Rathbone's hair style here. Basil and Nigel Bruce are still enjoyable and after a "Rah-Rah" speech, Evelyn Ankers gives a decent turn of woman determined to right wrongs by whatever means possible. Only one directed by John Rawlins (the rest were helmed by Roy William Neill, who also did FRANKENSTEIN MEETS THE WOLF MAN), some of the lighting in close ups is well done. **
