Movie Reviews of The Clutching Hand
Movie Review: Bottom of the Dreck Barrel
Summary: 1 Stars
I love movie serials. But despite the enticing name "The Clutching Hand" looks like a homemovie shot by people who don't know how to make a film move. I lasted through the first two chapters. The pacing is rotten, the inane laughter of the villain gets quite old in a hurry and the cameraman clearly doesn't know the difference between night and day, as so many scenes supposedly at night shift to broad daylight the moment the characters to to an exterior scene. The script or excuse for a script is inane. I gave it one star because as someone else said, for 6.98 what can you expect. This is LOW budget production. Stick with Republic, Universal or Columbia for decent B pictures with mostly excellent cliff-hangers. If they'd had credit cards in 1936, I'd think the buffoons who shot this clunker used their own credit to get the film stock. Purchase only if you want to waste your dough, even 6.98!
