Reviews:
"This 1948 B-movie is an excellently made thriller. It is well acted, well filmed, moves briskly, and keeps the viewer engaged with clever plot-twists and a couple of nicely done double- reversals of expectations. There are films with perhaps twenty times the budget of "The Amazing Mr. X" that aren't half as successful at telling the kind of story that this film features--which, I admit, was pretty well-worn even in 1948. Modern filmmakers trying their hands at thrillers with supernatural overtones would do well to study this film, as it shows exactly how that kind of film is made.
Don't let the cheesy title fool you. This is a top-notch thriller that's well worth a look by any lover of the genre."

Unless I'm mistaken this is the Villa de Leon Mansion overlooking the Pacific Coast Highway between Malibu & the Pacific Palisades, we used to pass it often when I was a child

Ignore the corny beginning with the weird voice. It gets better. It is a good show.
