Description:
The master detective Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) and his faithful cohort Dr. Watson (Nigel Bruce) are back, preserved and digitally restored in 35mm to original condition by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. This newly restored version of the classic film includes the period war bond tag and studio logo and credits from its original theatrical release. Filled with ominous shadows and interesting camera angles, the visual beauty of the film in 35mm is stunning. London is in a panic over a series of apparent "Pajama Suicides." Sherlock Holmes, however, is more inclined to believe that they are calculated murders. It is up to the great detective to discover the motive and the means of these crimes and to unmask the murderer. Enter Miss Adria Spedding; an intoxicating woman of character whom Holmes is convinced is behind the killings. A series of masquerades and deadly game playing ensues as Holmes and Watson enter a battle of wits with The Spider Woman.

Here is another strong entry (beautifully restored by the UCLA Film and Television Archive) from the peak of Basil Rathbone's prolific, seven-year run as a definitive Sherlock Holmes for the big screen. The Spider Woman (1944) employs details of Holmes's apparent death and resurrection between "The Final Problem" and its follow-up, "The Adventure of the Empty House." But the movie takes a different direction when a bizarre series of late-night "pajama suicides" finds Holmes probing the involvement of a femme fatale. Of the quartet of features in this set (all produced and directed by the energetic Roy William Neill) Spider Woman has the most vivacity and familiar textures from Doyle's canon. --Tom Keogh

I've enjoyed watching the old Sherlock Holmes movies since I was 17. They use to be on every Sunday at noon and I would watch them. When they went to Video and DVD, I couldn't miss the opportunity. I love watching maybe three or so at a time.
Basil Rathbone was born for the role and watching all 14 will prove it.

This is a short film in the Sherlock Holmes series (about 64 minutes in length), but a very interesting and entertaining one nonetheless. In this one, Sherlock Holmes (Basil Rathbone) tries to discover the mystery behind several mysterious "pajama suicides" that take place in the area. As he delves into the crime, he determines there is a femme fetale who is the mastermind behind this dastardly scheme, and that money is the reason.
Holmes uses his wit and wisdom to extract the means, ... Read More

This might rate as the most entertaining of all the Basil Rathbone Sherlock Holmes films, which I still think are the best renditions on film of the famous detective.
This has a surprising amount of action and is simply a fun story to watch. Packed into just one hour are such scenes as Holmes faking his death, a near-poisoning of he and Dr. Watson by gas, a strange little boy who hops around a room, tarantulas on the loose, on and on.
Nigel Bruce is his normally funny Dr. ... Read More

Love the Sherlock Holmes with Basil Rathbone! Even my granddaughter (8) loved the black & white version!

Basil Rathbone is Sherlock Holmes of Sherlock Holmes. The performers, B Rathbone, Gale Sondergaard, Nigel Bruce are unique, charicteristic, absorbing persona. From now on, I can stop an unsuccessful search for Sherlock Holmes movie.
