Crooky is a 1915 American silent film written by Paul West, directed by C. Jay Williams, and starring Frank Daniels, Charles Eldridge and Harry T. Morey.

While initial reviews were polite, the film quickly disappeared from the trade press and Daniels' persona became critiqued in other feature comedies as overly broad or immoral.

After his escape, he steals a suit of clothes to cover his prison garb, and makes his way to New York City.

In need of an infusion of cash to save a railroad deal he is working on, he tracks Roberts down to his hotel.

Meanwhile, back at the hotel the police arrive, and believing Roberts is Crooky, take him into custody.

In April 1915 Crooky Scruggs (the original title of the film) began to be promoted by Vitagraph.

[6] By August, the film was being referred to as simply Crooky, and by September it was being advertised under that abbreviated name.

[7][8] Motion Picture News gave the film a positive review, saying "it surely is a comedy and a good one."

They ended their review by saying, "'Crooky Scruggs' will live long in the hearts of those who care for good farce comedy.
