The Living Ghost. 1942.
Retired detective Nick Trayne is called out when a rich banker is kidnapped only to turn up in a zombie like state and goes to find the ones responsible.
This was a odd ball movie, the first part does have its comical witty sense of humour with some funny exchanges between the stars and when the body re-appears some part seem to drag on a bit, but does have it's good plot line twists. James Dunn has had a good career in film and television but he he is one of those actors who you either hate or love in some of the things he has done, enjoyable enough but not the best who dunnit flick.
