THE WHISTLER COMPLETE COLLECTION ON ONE BLU-RAY DISC

Description: THE WHISTLER COMPLETE COLLECTION ON ONE BLU-RAY DISC - 8 MOVIES The Whistler was adapted into a Film-Noir series of eight films by Columbia Pictures. The Voice of the Whistler was provided by an uncredited Otto Forrest. In the first seven films, veteran actor Richard Dix played the main character in the story -- a different character in each movie. In the eighth film, made after Dix's retirement, Michael Duane played the main character. The Whistler (1944) (Directed by William Castle) The Mark of the Whistler (1944) (Directed by William Castle and based on Cornell Woolrich's story) The Power of the Whistler (1945) Voice of the Whistler (1945) (Directed by William Castle) Mysterious Intruder (1946) (Directed by William Castle) The Secret of the Whistler (1946) The Thirteenth Hour (1947) The Return of the Whistler (1948) Each episode of The Whistler began with the sound of footsteps and a person whistling. The haunting signature theme tune was composed by Wilbur Hatch and featured Dorothy Roberts performing the whistling with the orchestra. The stories followed an effective formula in which a person's criminal acts were typically undone by either an overlooked but essential detail or their stupidity, except on rare occasions when a curious twist of fate caused the story to end happily for the episode's protagonist. Ironic twist endingsThese films were originally produced long before the advent of High Definition TV. Therefore they are best viewed on a small screen. HD TVs tend to stretch and skew the picture. Please do not expect DVD or Commercial level DVDs from these films.
