      kay j I love Mr Raymond Burr as Perry Mason. I think Daddy was way too touchy-feely with his daughter. He finally gets locked and that cut the creepy out. Good movie, creepy daddy. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/31/22 Full Review Audience Member My favorite of the tv movies. Has great material between Raymond Burr and the young actress playing the daughter. They had great chemistry. A great cast of supporting actors: Robert Culp, Robert Vaughn, Don Galloway from Ironside and Ken Kercheval.
