Susan Hart, assistant to private detective Russ Ashton, is given a camera concealed in a hat box and assigned to take a picture of a woman. A gun is accidentally hidden in the box and the woman is killed. Susan is charged with murder, but Russ and his less-than-useful associate, Harvard, get on the case and prove that the fatal shot was fired by the killer from across the street.
This Poverty Row detective film is dreadful, but for a B-movie buff like me, still has moments of interest. While struggling detective Tom Neal is out of his office, his secretary/fiancée Pamela Blake takes on a case for him; a mysterious man with an obviously fake goatee says he wants her to get photographic evidence of his wife's adulterous activities. He tells Blake where to take the picture and even gives her a hat box with a hidden camera to use. However, when Blake goes to take the photo, it turns out that the box is rigged with a gun, and she shoots the wife. With equal parts help and hindrance from bumbling sidekick Allen Jenkins, Neal works to clear Blake. The plot is serviceable but with a weak script and a 45 minute running time, this ends up feeling more like a summary of a movie with most of the action and explanatory detail left out. I like both Neal and Jenkins (though the handsome Neal, only in his mid-30's, looks rather seedy here) and they both try hard, but the weak material defeats them. Blake is totally forgettable, though comic actress Virginia Sale gets some chuckles as a burger slinger and Jenkins' long-suffering gal. The most notable part of the film is at the very beginning, when the four leads introduce themselves directly to the camera, first in character, then with Neal giving their real names.
There are some films that are enjoyably bad, and some that are just plain bad. This misguided little effort, obviously designed as a pilot for an early TV series, belongs firmly in the latter category. Plumbing the depths of a charmless cast here, we find Virginia Sale as a lovelorn hamburger queen. This role could have been reasonably funny, but Miss Sale makes it just wearisomely pathetic. Allen Jenkins can normally be relied upon for a few good laughs and quiet chucklesbut not in this picture! True, he labors mightily hard to make his unamusing, time-consuming lines sparkle by shouting at the top of his voice, but all in vain. Tom Neal also does his best to ingratiate his character with the audience, but hampered by repetitive, marking-time dialogue and a nonsensical plot, he makes no headway. The same goes for the over-talkative but not over-bright D.A. played by Edward Keane. The only actor who manages to succeed even mildly in his role (as, unintentionally an over-age cop on the beat, who should have received his pension years ago) is Tom Kennedy, and he is stymied by poor make-up (a quality that also afflicts Messrs Neal and Jenkins. Or perhaps their slovenly, unshaven appearance was deliberately contrived to win the hearts of the armchair slobs who would presumably watch their dialogue-bound antics on TV. The villains, by contrast, are all neat as a pin).
