Product Description:
HERLOCK HOLMES & DR. WATSON TAKE ON THE CASE OF SIR HENRY ASKERVILLE, HOPING TO PROTECT HIM FROM THE TERRIFYING FATE HAT HAS BEFALLEN HIS FAMILY FOR GENERATIONS. BUT IF YOU THINK OU KNOW HOW THE STORY ENDS, THINK AGAIN.
Amazon.com:
David Attwood's fresh and thrilling BBC adaptation of The Hound of the Baskervilles grabs the viewer by the throat from its opening scene. The plot of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's most famous story should be familiar: Sherlock Holmes (Richard Roxburgh) and Dr. Watson (Ian Hart) take on the case of Sir Henry Baskerville (Matt Day), hoping to protect him from the terrifying fate that has befallen his family for generations. But if you think you know how the story ends, think again.
While Jeremy Brett remains the definitive Holmes on screen, Roxburgh is also outstanding, as are Hart as an unusually passionate Watson and Richard E. Grant as the neighbor Stapleton. Trivia note: Roxburgh continued his take on the Holmes legend in 2003's The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. --David Horiuchi

I watch every permutation there is of any of the Sherlock Holmes series. None of the Watsons ever seemed the sort of person that a brilliant mind like Holmes would give the time of day to. This Watson- Ian Hart- is smart, active, morally outraged and rescues Holmes in the end, despite having been shot himself. If I were Homes, THIS is who I'd want watching my back.

This is a story about a Canadian, Sir Henry Baskerville, who inherits a valuable and huge estate on Dartmoor, a dreary and forbidding environment. A family curse, (manifested by an incredibly huge, vicious, and horrific hound), has apparently caused his ancestors' demise and it looks as if Sir Henry is similarly doomed.
The characters who surround Sir Henry at his ancestral home are a nefarious lot and it's near impossible to decide who is behind which of the many mysterious goings ... Read More

There is much to admire about this adaptation of Hound of the Baskervilles. As great as Jeremy Brett was, and he was the greatest Homes ever IMO, his version of The Hound was rather dull. Kudos to this production for trying to bump up the excitement a notch.
As many have said, The Hound is far from Doyle's best Holmes story, and it has been done to death. This version tried to add some excitement that has been lost through the years. The most effective way they accomplished this was ... Read More

The only way we could watch the DVD was to use our computer. It would not run on our DVD player.

I am very glad that I checked this DVD out from the library instead of blowing my money on buying it, or even squandering three bucks to rent it. I, like every true Holmes fanatic, was very interested when I saw this DVD and immediately snatched it up and hurried home to watch it. What a waste of time!
After having read almost all the reviews of this movie on this webpage, it's fairly obvious to me that the vast majority of the people who actually liked this travesty were people who ... Read More
