Cushing is excellent as always, and the mystery of the film is fairly well done with a good amount of suspense to the proceedings. But Milland, Diffring and Baxter are unfortunately wasted here with sadly little to do and in the case of Baxter rather miscast. But if you're looking for Cushing's last hurrah as the great sleuth this does not disappoint and is worth the hunt in bootleg circles.
