Ray Kenton (Joe Maross) owes some gangsters $1,500...or they'll kill him. His long-suffering wife Ruth (Beverly Garland) refuses to give him the money. There's also a killer roaming around town strangling women to death. Through a highly unlikely set of circumstances Ray figures out how to get the money using the killer. Also in the cast was the then unknown Warren Oates as Benny.
Fairly entertaining thriller with a good cast and acting--Maross, Garland and Oates are all great. However the plot is highly unbelievable and the direction is off at times. One transition shot from an alley to Benny's apartment was REALLY clumsy. Still I was entertained by it. One of the better entries in the "Thriller" TV series.
