My rating of 8 is, perhaps, relative to PRC's usual fare. First, the direction, lighting, photography, set direction (by George Montgomery) and scoring are as good as any 1st class B from Columbia or Fox. Second, while the windup is a bit fantastic, the story is amusing and the idea of The Mad Russian asking a group of actors who are well-known for playing detectives on the screen to aid in solving the mystery is a delightful twist. The cast underplays very well and everyone seems to be having a good time making this picture. Like most PRC's this one is tough to see (I just picked up a 16mm print). But if you can track it down, check it out.
