The Hound of the Baskervilles (1939)

It is the year 1889, it is night, and we see a man running across the moors: breathless, frightened. Behind him we hear the baying of a hound, a sound so fearful it chills the soul. The man falls. From the desolate rocky landscape another man peers; he is bearded and rough looking, perhaps a convict escaped from the nearby prison. At the great house that looms in the darkness, Baskerville Hall, a servant woman opens the door, lantern in hand, and finds her master, Sir Charles Baskerville dead. Considered by many as the best film in the series, Rathbone and Bruce establish themselves as the indisputable Holmes and Watson. Richard Green, Lionel Atwill and John Carradine make up the rest of the cast in this atmospheric thriller.
