OLD 1940s movie, 'released OVER 70 years ago!!, so WHY, OH,WHY does RT keep saying "NO CRITIC reviews cuz 'hasn't been released yet'? MADDENING NONSENSE.!! // ahem: Interesting, tho unlikely. JANICE CARTER, always HOT! & DICK DIX as nice amnesiac who finally realizes he is a crazy killher. Never saw a WHISTLER movie until now on the TV set, 12.29.2021

Elements of the supernatural come into play in this entry in the Film Noir series. Well done.

A minor miracle

Columbia's B pictures were generally the worst of the major studios. It's hard to forgive them for those awful Jungle Jim films and producer Sam Katzman generally had no artistic quality in his product. Maybe his absence explains the relative excellence of the Whistler series, in particular this very early entry in the Psycho Killer stakes. More reminiscent of Val Lewton than Katzman, The Power of the Whistler foreshadowed many Hollywood psychological features of the next half century.
