THIS MOVIE SCARED THE DAYLIGHTS OUT OF WHEN I WAS 8 October 16, 1999 2 out of 9 found this review helpful
THE FIRST TIME I SAW THIS MOVIE WAS WHEN I WAS 8 YRS OLD. I DON'T REMEMBER THE ACTORS NAMES. I HAVE NEVER FORGOTTEN THIS MOVIE I SAW ALMOST 62YRS AGO.THE HOUND WAS A TERRIFYING ANIMAL ON THE DARK MOOR. I HAD NIGHTMARES FOR YEARS
Great expectations, but... August 28, 1999 2 out of 9 found this review helpful
This one should have been the jewel in the crown of the Granada television series, since "The Hound of the Baskervilles" is the best of the Conan Doyle novels. Unfortunately though, this movie is not: Suspense Q-marks are dutyfully ignored, the pace is to slow, the ghost isn't frightening and Jeremy Brett appears old, tired and fat. By the way, where's the deerstalker? I know Holmes didn't always wear one -however erroneously portrayed that way in every Sherlock Holmes movie you've seen, as if he were hunting ducks in the middle of London (the series' eye-for-detail rightly avoids this mistake)- but in THIS adventure in particular, it was THE attire to wear! Instead, Holmes wanders through the moors in a fedora. What a letdown! Nevertheless, I'm a big fan of the series and I think Brett was the best Holmes ever!

I hope this is the full-length version that begins with the well-polished coffee pot. The best-known Holmes novel is gamely tackled here, with first-rate filmmaking, acting, and effects.
