The film has good quality picture and sound following extensive restoration.Serena: Scotland Yard Inspector Gregory (Patrick Holt) strives to solve the mystery of an artist's wife found shot dead at an isolated Surrey cottage.

This 1962 Butchers production demonstrates again how Butchers were able to put together a good British B movie with a modest budget. The cast is the reliable Patrick Holt, Emrys Jones and Honor Blackman already enjoying success in The Avengers and two years later was Pussy Galore in Goldfinger.Shot on location and at Shepperton Studios its a story of death and deception nicely directed by Peter Maxwell with some 'newsy' type pan and zooms. The Director of Photography was Stephen Dade who created some good stark atmospheres he went on in 1964 to be D.O.P. on Zulu. Serena is a good British b flick with picture and sound of good quality.
