The Girl in Black Stockings   1957   6 out of 10

The description for this movie on IMDB reads " A Party girl is murdered, and everyone at a Utah motel is a suspect."   This murder mystery is plodding in its pacing, but has a good pay off at the end that makes the journey worthwhile.  The suspects include  a weird guy in a wheelchair that owns the motel that can't move his arms or legs,  a creepy dim wit drunk, a man that just arrived in town and several other mysterious characters.  As the mystery unravels several more people die including the always gorgeous Mamie Van Doren.  The story slowly unravels with several red herrings leading you down possible paths.   The problem with many old mystery stories is that you can get stories just as good if not better in many of the detective or crime TV shows that have come since.

This B Crime movie plays like a boring episode of a TV cop drama.  A police sergeant is framed while trying to clean up the city as a part from prostitution.  He then turns the tables on the gangsters after the main models sister is attacked by one of the gangsters.   The movie was very average with the exception of Mamie Van Doren's  Marilyn like presence on the screen.

There isn't really much a plot to this movie at all.  It is madcap for no reason and the whole theme seems to be that Mamie Van Doren   is too blond to be a genius?    (Spoiler alert)  The paper thin plot line has several gangsters after something while hottie Mamie Van Doren causes trouble by being too good looking.   It turns out in the end that a sleep walking football lunk is getting Thinko the Robot to figure to make gambling bets that are making the silly gangsters lose money.    Again a very thin plot to a wacky movie that seems to have no focus or direction other than having Mamie Van Doren on the screen  (which is enough to get this silly movie a 4 out of 10).
