Nov 9 07 7:23 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	This has probably been done before, but since we've lost all of the old results, we might as well take a second evaluation of these B-picture gems. To make it more interesting, I've left out the first two in the series, which I suspect most people would have voted for. It's not particularly fair that Fox's two lavish, big-budget pictures should take on Universal's more humble efforts anyway. Best Sherlock Holmes Film? (Result) Sherlock Holmes and the Voice of Terror Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon Sherlock Holmes in Washington Sherlock Holmes Faces Death The Spider Woman The Scarlet Claw The Pearl of Death The House of Fear The Woman in Green Pursuit to Algiers Terror by Night Dressed to Kill

My favorite of all of the Rathbone flicks is HOUND. Check out my movie collection at: http://www.dvdaf.com/search.html?where=larryw7&init_form=where_0_larryw7*mode_more

Holmes is indirectly responsible for allowing the pearl to be stolen. The only deaths he's responsible for are the pair of villains.
