The Six Men

A group of six villains led by Mastermind Peter Bull has been baffling Scotland Yard for years. However, someone is following them around, leading them into temptation and knocking them off one by one, as Harold Wallender's assistant, Michael Evans catches them in the act, when he's not busy pursuing beautiful actress Olga Edwardes.

With dialogue that sounds like it's from a boy's newspaper, a frenetic score by Hans Gunther Stumpf, and lighting by cameraman S. D. Onions that throws dramatic shadows on the bare walls of underdecorated sets, it's the model of a quota quickie that doesn't strain the brain too much. It's a pleasant enough time water for an undemanding audience.
