Movie - Cat and the Canary (1939)

This is a fantastic movie. If you enjoy movies like Clue and Once Upon a Crime, that couple dark mysterious drama with witty comedy, or just enjoy older films in general, then chances are good that you will enjoy this classic film. Bob Hope is charismatic and fun to watch, Joyce Norman is charming and (bearing in mind the social norms of the 30s) her presence is bold and strong, and Nydia Westman is very entertaining and amusing. In general, all of the acting was great and the props were convincing.

I've watched this film several times and always enjoy it. I definitely recommend it.

Summary from IMDb:
When an eccentric family meets in their uncle's remote, decaying mansion on the tenth anniversary of his death for the reading of his will, murder and madness follow.
