Original Title:

The Hound Of The Baskervilles 1978

A bizarre teaming of Warhol Factory director Paul Morrissey with a cast of top-rate British comedians, this founders badly.

Peter Cook and Dudley Moore are ghastly as a Jewish Holmes and a Welsh Watson, and the gags mainly involve Moore's face on the receiving end of a fountain of chihuahua pee or Exorcist-style green vomit.

This founders badly - a top rate cast riduced to ridiculous farce.
