review
It remains doubtful whether identical half-brothers is even a medical possibility but the presence of such a remarkable coincidence is just one of the inconsistencies in this Grade-B offering. Happily, breezy acting from future western star Charles Starrett coupled with the usual solid presence of veteran vampire slayer Edward Van Sloan and silent screen actor Robert Warwick make A Shot in the Dark fun viewing even for today's more jaded audience.
