Craig Stevens is good as an escaped mental patient who hitches a ride with the police to his elderly sister's house, who turns out to be just as crazy as him. She hatches a plot to fake her death in order to get her relatives together and kill the ones she doesn't like. An old clock over the mantle is both a safe and the release for a trap door that drops people to their death. It's a typical, talky murder case, with comedy relief from Willie Best, Bob Hope's sidekick in The Ghost Breakers.
