A Shot in the Dark  — 4K 01/31/26

The second and perhaps best Peter Sellers Inspector Clouseau comedy introduces Bert Kwouk’s Cato, Herbert Lom’s Commissioner Dreyfus, some playful direction from Blake Edwards, and a kooky music score my Henry Mancini. It was actually adaptated from a pre-existing play, with the Clouseau character shoehorned in. The follow-up to The Pink Panther lacks the same star-power, but Edwards has more polish on his slapstick, so to speak. Reviewer Charlie Largent gives it a critical once-over. On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics.
