In THE STRANGE CASE OF DR. RX, private detective, Jerry Church (Patrick Knowles) is drawn into the murder spree of the titular mad physician, in spite of his plans to the contrary.
One of the lesser-known horror films from Universal Studios, it's more of a crime-mystery movie. It's rather lighthearted considering the subject matter. Any real terror is saved for the finale. Mr. Knowles is a serviceable gumshoe. Both Shemp Howard and Mantan Moreland are on hand to help keep things from getting too serious. Lionel Atwill plays the mysterious Dr. Fish, hiding behind his ultra-thick eyeglasses.
A harmless timewaster...
