The Pearl of Death, the 1944 Roy William Neill detective murder mystery crime thriller ("20 Men die for it. A girl risks her life. The Creeper stalks to kill!"; "The master minds tackle the master crimes!"; "Marked for a sudden and violent death!"; "A girl risked everything for it!"; "20 men lost their lives for it!"; "Who was the Creeper?"; "Based on 'The Six Napoleons' by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle") starring Basil Rathbone (as Sherlock Holmes), Nigel Bruce (as Doctor Watson), Evelyn Ankers, Dennis Hoey (as Inspector Lestrade), Miles Mander, Mary Gordon, and Rondo Hatton (as The Creeper). Click on Rondo Hatton's name to learn more about this actor, who suffered from acromegaly, which distorted his features (but Universal saw this as a good thing, because they could cast him as a "monster" without any makeup!).
