Poster for the movie The Fatal Hour

Monogram Monday: The Fatal Hour (1940)

A policeman who has been working undercover investigating smuggling is found murdered, and detective James Lee Wong (Boris Karloff) helps police captain Bill Street (Grant Withers) to track down their friend’s killer(s). Marjorie Reynolds is very good as reporter Bobbie Long, and the rest of the supporting cast does well with their parts. This is an entertaining entry in the Mr. Wong series.

  Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK.
