Audience Member Director Irving Lerner made consecutive films with Vince Edwards in the late 1950s. The first was the under-seen classic Murder By Contract and then this one City Of Fear. Both would be an excellent double-feature of their best work. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Noir afectado pela paranoia atómica tem um início empolgante, mas não tem muito mais para dar a partir daí. No mesmo género de mistério policial cruzado com nuances de ficção científica, "Kiss me deadly" é bem superior. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member I thought this movie was a great noir-ish thriller. A film about greed and paranoia. And chemical threat. The acting's good, the script stays away from cheesiness for the most part. It's a great, under-appreciated flick. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member now this IS a noir very tactile and paranoid good stuff from the 2nd cycle. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Hygglig noir med aningen krystad story. FÃ¥nge rymmer frÃ¥n San Quintain fängelset och stjäl samtidigt ett kilo heroin tror han. Det visar sig att det inte är heroin han stulit utan ett kilo Cobolt 60, ett radioaktivt ämne som används för experiment pÃ¥ fÃ¥ngarna. FÃ¥ngen och behÃ¥llaren med ämnet mÃ¥ste hittas snabbt för att inte en storskalig katastrof ska utbryta i LA. Föredömligt kort speltid och har man överseende med de nÃ¥got krystade inslagen i storyn sÃ¥ funkar den bra. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Realistic location photography and a heightened Cold War sense of radioactive paranoia distinguish Irving Lerner's B-picture, a re-teaming with Vince Edwards, star of "Murder by Contract", as an escaped convict carrying around a tin of nuclear material, which he thinks his heroin, and it's slowly killing him. Short and effective, though whenever it gets away from Edwards, focusing on the police manhunt, it gets a bit dry. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
