Candidate for Murder is a very pedestrian thriller which rather rambles along with very little momentum.
Michael Gough plays Donald Edwards who has hired a German hitman to kill his wife whom he suspects of having an affair.
Somehow the hitman distrusts Edwards and suspects he will be double crossed. The hitman kidnaps the wife and tells Edwards he has killed her.
Edwards wants the proof of a dead body as both men turn on each other.
A routine and subpar Edgar Wallace mystery. Gough is increasingly deranged. The hitman manages to struggle on after being shot and hit by a car. It is all a bit forgettable.
