Review – Sherlock Holmes and the Scarlet Claw

Though this is basically The Hound of the Baskervilles relocated to Canada, it’s still a fun Holmes adventure. While in the Great White North for a discussion about the supernatural, our heroes find themselves caught up in a mystery surrounding a murderous moor monster. In one particularly eerie scene, Holmes is pursued across the bog by a “specter” wearing luminous clothing, a strange use of special effects for this otherwise fairly low budget series. The final turn of the screw turns out to be a bit lame, but otherwise this is one of the better entries in the set. Mildly amusing
