THE CASE OF THE MURDERED MADAM is one of the most lacklustre PERRY MASON movies I've watched. The plot is entirely unmemorable with unpleasant characters and a muddled murder sequence. The subsequent investigations feel sluggish and endless and only a typically charming performance from William Katt and his terrible mullet haircut make things worthwhile. It's obvious that Raymond Burr was suffering during the production of this one as he's laid up for the most part with talk of a leg injury. Cast-wise, a barely-seen John Rhys-Davies is as good as it gets, and that simply isn't very good.
