- The most famous Sherlock Holmes story of all finds the sleuth and Watson (Nigel Stock) in windswept Dartmoor.

Good chemistry - Sherlock Holmes: The Hound of the Baskervilles review by JD
You felt that the acting was so good there must have been a rapport between the actors which exactly matched the characters. Some of the minor actors ham it up a bit but this is 1968. Surprised it was in colour. Cushing is a brilliant Holmes. The special effects are a little dated but the plot is excellently paced, I enjoyed every second.
