Charlie Chan's Murder Cruise

1940

USA

Eugene Forde Director
20th Century Fox Film Corporation Studio

The fifth Toler Chan finds him investigating a strangler preying on a group of assorted types traveling around the world. Enjoyable, with a nice collection of eccentric red herrings. Essentially a remake of the now lost Charlie Chan Carries On (1931).

Note: IMDb has Beddoe's character as James Ross, but he introduces himself in the film as Frederick Ross.
