The Phantom of Crestwood
1932

"First-rate whodunit, with crafty Karen Morely calling together the men in her life for a mass-blackmail scheme, resulting in murder. Eye-riveting flashback technique highlights solid mystery." (Leonard Maltin, TV Movies) "J. Walter Ruben isn't a director that many people know, yet his name crops up frequently in taut and unusual thrillers and mysteries, ranging from glossy MGMs to the odd British film. While no major rediscovery, this one is a vastly enjoyable mixture of the old house and private eye genres." (William K. Everson)
