The Desperate Hours (1955)



Three escaped convicts move in on and terrorize a suburban household.

Intense crime thriller with excellently clashing performances, but slightly too long.

Halliwell*: "Ponderous treatment of an over-familiar situation with only the acting and an 'A' picture look to save it."

Maltin***1/2: "Extremely well acted account..."
