SYNOPSIS:
Scotland Yard Inspector (1947, 73 min.)
Cesar Romero stars in this Hammer mystery as a Yank newspaperman in London who sets out to solve a murder, American style. The rest of the typically tangled plot includes assaults, a mysterious tape recording, a visit to an asylum and even a plot to steal an inventor's secrets! Lois Maxwell, the James Bond series' "Miss Moneypenny", co-stars.
Pier 23 (1951, 59 min.)
Two more "brushes with crime" for ace private detective Dennis O'Brien (Hugh Beaumont). In the first, he gets mixed up with a crooked wrestling referee, an equally corrupt arena owner and murderous grappler Mike Mazurki. Next is a case involving a murdered cop and film noir's ultimate femme double-crosser, the unforgettable Ann Savage (Detour).
The Case of the Baby-Sitter (1953, 43 min.)
Jewel thieves, operating in the guise of a Duke and Duchess, hire the Ace Detective Agency to "baby sit" the infant they are using as a blind for their thefts. A rival mob dopes the detective's dumb aide and make off with a valuable diamond.
