John Chard (Rated: 7)
Tidy comedy, great mystery!
Bud & Lou find themselves at the center of a murder mystery, the chief suspect? Why Lou Costello of course.
As a comedy, Meet The Killer offers nothing fresh to what we haven't seen before from the boys prior to this 1949 offering, not that the comedy doesn't delive...
