Deux nigauds chez les tueurs (1949)
Un crime mystérieux ensanglante le Lost Cavern Hotel. Un avocat réputé, Amos Strickland, est abattu à coups de révolver dans la chambre qu'il vient de louer. Les soupçons se portent rapidement sur le garçon d’étage gaffeur et malchanceux, Freddie Phillips, qui, en fait, n'a rien à se reprocher, sinon d'innombrables maladresses. Le détective de l'hôtel, Casey Edwards, qui est par ailleurs son meilleur ami, vole à son secours. En fait, loin de l'innocenter, le limier renforce les soupçons qui pèsent sur lui. Désespéré, le garçon d’étage se tourne vers un hypnotiseur, un personnage plutôt inquiétant, tandis qu'un télégramme révèle que l'ensemble des locataires de l'hôtel forme une belle collection de suspects.
