Just happened to catch this movie on TCM during the week before Halloween and is it a thriller! Robert Montgomery plays just the creepiest guy !!! There is a scene in this movie that was stolen by a more famous movie - "Seven" if you know what I mean. GREAT performances, GREAT psychological drama, I HIGHLY recommend.
