The story is unusual and remarkably powerful

By using hypnotism, a weird, uncanny effect is given to an exciting, up-to-date detective story. The impression that it makes grips the spectator in a peculiar way, but grips him strongly. It claims to introduce the methods of "Prof. Locksley, the hypnotist detective." This is probably only a fiction: it is to be hoped it is, for, if the detective claims to use suggestion in hypnosis thus, he is a quack. However, the story is unusual and remarkably powerful. So out-of-the- ordinary is it that it stands out from all other pictures of this kind. It is not instructive, but misleading, much art is, even in such magazines as charge thirty-five cents a copy. The picture is, however, a star number without any doubt. It will be talked about and it will draw. - The Moving Picture World, November 18, 1911
