Review of The Scarlet Web

I finally caught up with this film a few days ago on Performance satellite channel and i have to say that my wait was worth while.This is screamingly funny and so cheaply made.For example the music used in this film is from the Pathe News library.It is played time and again at appropraite and inappropriate moments.Our hero has gone inside to trap a villain who was trying an insurance fraud.When he comes out,his boss at the insurance firm,Hazel Court,forgets to tell the police this vital piece of information,so that he is as real life crook. In one scene to avoid the police our hero goes out of Hazel Courts office by going out of the window some floors up.Now some directors would think this a good time to create some tension.But no we are told that he managed to get into a conference room.Yet there was no door leading to a conference room. Outside our heros flat a furtive figure is lurking around.When our hero drives off the odd character to give the police details of the car only he cannot remember all of the car number,and so it goes on.Try and watch it yourself and see if it is not worthy of nomination of one of the worst turkeys of all time.
