In case you’re interested in seeing the rest of this month’s television mystery movies, here’s the July television mystery movies schedule:

It’s the time of the month again to find out about next month’s upcoming mystery movies that will be on television. As usual, I’m posting the Turner Classic Movies channel mysteries (and some non-mystery movies with my favorite actors and actresses) that I think are definitely worth looking at.

July will have a fair number of Alfred Hitchcock movies, but separated into enough smaller marathons that singling out a “must-see” day is pretty difficult. Instead, I’d urge you to browse through the schedule to pick out your own favorite movies by the Master of Suspense.
