Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
chris-4016 Barry Lineham is wearing a 'syrup' which looks like a sleeping polecat at timesThe cars are wonderful period models, and Erica Rogers is superb
sgtmac-01689 An excellent second feature, with a well assembled cast.Most of the movies in the Edgar Wallace collection are quite slow and boring but this is a little gem and I liked it when I first saw it as a 17 year old kid back in 1983 when Channel 4 in the UK uses to show them late at night.
GUENOT PHILIPPE Yes folks, this is a very good episode from the Edgard Wallace Mystery TV shows. The exciting tale of two hoodlums who steal a car in which there is a note - a ransom letter - directed to a wealthy man whom the daughter has just been kidnapped. And of course the two gangsters stole the abductor's car. They find the note and decide to take advantage of the situation, collect the money and impersonating the real kidnappers, no matter the kidnapped girl's life, if they can't deliver her to her father. Of course...Because if the real abductors don't get the dol...But the police force is here, waiting...I won't spoil any further, but it is a very efficient tale, believe me.
