The Mysterious Mr M 1946 Written by Paul Huston and Joseph F Poland, directed by Lewis D Collins and Vernon Keays. A 13 part serial produced by Universal. It was the last one they produced and it's kind of lack luster.
A villain has a hypnotic drug that he uses to control people. He calls himself Mr M. Another villain forces themselves into Mr M's plan to steal some submarine electronics. Dennis Moore and Richard Martin play a couple of detectives on Mr M's trail. There's all the usual running about, cliffhangers, double dealing, fist fights, car chases, explosions and criminal activity. I started speeding up the film after a chapter or two. I bought the DVD, I might not get around to it again but I will keep it in case I run out of other things to watch.
