The Night Holds Terror (1955)
Director: Andrew L Stone
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Tense thriller, based on an actual incident, follows husband and wife Kelly and Parks as they're held hostage by a gang led by Edwards and an especially nasty Cassavetes. Low-key and unsensationalised, it takes an effective grip on the nerves and predates the likes of In Cold Blood by a decade or more.Author: TJ
