    Entertaining cheapo late-'50s B-movie

    A nice entertaining suspenseful quirky '50s B-movie with a straight-forward no-frills script and dialogue. I liked this flick each of the two times I saw it, years apart.

    Stand-outs are: Edward Platt as an eccentric mastermind crook, Kathleen Crowley: you can feel her pain and disappointment; and Gregg Palmer, torn between love and greed.

    The drawback is that the movie was deceptively packaged as a "beatnik/rebel" movie-which, of course, it was not about (except for a few semi-coffeehouse scenes).

    • Trivia
      The conniving Boss Tucker and his henchman Sydney are played by Ed Platt and Ned Glass, two eminent character actors who, ironically, built their long careers playing down-to-earth good guys.
    • Goofs
      Towards the end of the movie, when the policemen are boarding the train in Newark, the film has been mirrored, as can be seen by the word "PACIFIC" (as "CIFICAP") on the right side of the door.
