Movie Review: Fog Island (1945)
Synopsis: Recently released convict Leo Grainer invites a group of his former associates to the secluded home he shares with his stepdaughter, Gail. Before excusing himself and going to bed, Grainer gives each of his guests, Gail and his butler an individual clue, which they believe may lead to a hidden fortune. However, Grainer, bitter over the murder of his wife and believing one of his guests is the killer, has instead set up a series of deadly traps. Who's in it? The movie stars George Zucco , Lionel Atwill , Sharon Douglas, Veda Ann Borg and Jerome Cowan.
