MYSTERY OF THE 13TH GUEST 1943 (AMAZON PRIME)

An old dark house mystery with plenty of comedy thrown in.

A young woman named Marie Morgan (Helen Parrish) travels to her grandfathers old estate and opens as will on her 21rst birthday as per his last request.

Others in the family also arrive and one by one they are murdered by a masked killer who electrifies a telephone and uses it to kill his victims.

William Beaudine directed this fun little mystery thriller which adds nothing new to the genre, but is an entertaining way to spend 60 minutes. The movie is fast paced enough, and Parrish as well as leading man Dick Purcell handle their roles very well.

Frank Faylen is on hand for some comic relief and the revalation of the killer is pretty cool. If you enjoy these kinds of movies, then I think this one will do you fine. I enjoyed it.
