77 Dr Renault's Secret ( 1942 )

This was pretty much a B-movie but in fact it's a well-acted, engaging film.

Shepperd  Strudwick  plays  young  Dr  Forbes  who  plans  to  marry  the  neice  of  respected  anthropologist  Dr  Renault  ( George Zucco ). He  meets  the  doctor's  assistant  Noel  ( J Carrol  Naish )  a  slow, simian  lunk   and  then  murders  start  happening. It's  fairly  predictable  all  the  way  through  but  still  worth  watching.
