一部人海众生相式的电影，温泉角色众多，温泉枝节纵横交错，将五十年代初期纽约布鲁克林区的底下层社会面貌作出活生生的反映，故事背景是正在进行大罢工的边缘地带，工人已有六个月没工作，人人心情烦燥，此时一名年轻妓女崔拉拉自甘随落的行为，引起了一群醉酒士兵、流氓青年和失业工人的大围殴，情况一发不可收拾。导演尤里奇．埃迪尔采用十分沉低调的手法来刻画社会边缘人的阴暗面，角色包括了：同性恋青年、未婚怀孕的女儿、不良帮派份子、专搞仙人跳的妓女等等，部份色情暴力的场面处理得相当露骨。饰演妓女的珍妮弗．贾森．利有遭人轮暴的激情演出，凭本片一举成名。

回复 :Sir Charles Baskerville dies at the entrance of his manor, and Doctor Mortimer says he died of natural causes. However, when telling Sherlock Holmes of the case, he feels Sir Charles' death was a result of a centuries old curse that runs in the Baskerville family, which Dr. Mortimer feels will strike at Sir Charles nephew, Sir Henry, who is arriving to claim the Baskerville estate. Holmes sends Dr. Watson in his place, along with Dr. Mortimer and Sir Henry, to the manor and for Watson to keep an eye out for any suspicious actions. Immediately after arriving, Watson notices the queer occurrences at the estate and surrounding moors, and sends Holmes reports of what is going on concerning the life of Sir Henry. Will Holmes arrive in time to unravel the mystery, and who is responsible for Sir Charles' death and the attempted murder of Sir Henry? Is it Dr. Mortimer, neighbor Stapleton, butler Barryman, harmless old Frankland, a mysterious wild man, or is there a curse on the Baskerville family? Very good opening entry in the Rathbone-Bruce Holmes series (even though this film lacks qualities of any ongoing entries.) The film could have been a bit more darker and foreboding (the film does have a movie studio set feel) and have an ending with a little more confrontation to it, but it does provide for much fun. The romantic scenes with Greene and Barrie have little spark, but there are very good red herring performances by the cast, which is a plus for this movie. Rating, 8.
