Sir Arthur Conan Doyle`s Sherlock Holmes, also known by the shortened title Sherlock Holmes, is a British-American 2010 direct-to-DVD mystery film directed by Rachel Lee Goldenberg and produced by independent American film studio The Asylum. It is based on the Sherlock Holmes characters created by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Torchwood star Gareth David-Lloyd plays Dr. John Watson and Ben Syder (making his film debut) plays Sherlock Holmes. The film is a mockbuster intended to capitalise upon the 2009 film of the same name directed by Guy Ritchie, and is the second film by The Asylum to be inspired by the writings of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The film was shot in Caernarfon, Wales on a low budget. The Asylum had previously used the same locations to film Merlin and the War of the Dragons.
