Barely watchable - and listenable

Zero-budget mystery that's all talk - and most of the talk cannot be heard clearly because the sound is so poor. The 45-minute running time suggests possible hacking in the editing room as well - that would explain why some scenes don't seem to follow the previous ones. Cute twist at the end (no, not the murderer, I'm talking about the very last scene), but overall this is close to unwatchable. 0.5 out of 4 stars.

Quicky followup to GREEN FOR DANGER

This film was apparently made to capitalize on the success of GREEN FOR DANGER, the classic 1946 whodunit film based on the novel by Christianna Brand. DEATH IN HIGH HEELS, based on Brand's first novel, while not up to the standard of the other film in any department, is not without interest, especially to lovers of Golden Age detective fiction. And while the "surprise" denoument is not difficult to predict, the film (at 48 minutes) hardly outstays it welcome.
