pretty good for a B film shortie !
9 December 2018
Charles McGraw is prisoner Red kluger, who is out to get the guys who put him away. He was in SO many big films over the years.... The Birds, Spartacus. His nemesis is Detective Williams, played by Michael O'Shea. Virginia Grey is in here as Red's girlfriend. Lots of bickering and squabbling. Hostage taking. Hiding out. Pretty good, for a shortie, at sixty-five minutes. Directed by Felix Feist...had started making shorts, then moved to full length films. Lots of sadness in his life story.. his (ex) wife died of suicide, and he died of cancer two months later.
