Suspense As Startling As A Strangled Scream!

This is it, the defining motion picture in all of "film noir," written by Academy Award-nominee Martin Goldsmith and directed by legendary B-moviemaker Edgar G. Ulmer (The Black Cat).

Tom Neal, handsome 1940's leading man, brings to thrilling life a down-on-his-luck nightclub performer who takes a wrong turn and picks up the meanest broad in all "noir," played to perfection by the incomparable Ann Savage in the most powerful and riveting performance ever recorded on celluloid.
