Exceptional B movie considered for decades to be the greatest B movie ever made. If not the best, it's certainly near the top of the list. Nina Foch gives an excellent performance as Julia Ross, an unsuspecting woman who answers an ad for a job and finds herself the hostage of a deranged man and his domineering mother. George Macready and Dame May Witty make for memorable villains, sinister and creepy. The film is only sixty-five minutes long and director Joseph H. Lewis makes the most of it, keeping the film moving at a brisk pace but not rushed. This is definitely one of the 1940's films I would put on a must-see list for those interested in trying out older films.
