It is a hoot seeing a very young Leslie Nielson in a serious role. For a "thriller made almost 50 years ago, the suspense holds up surprisingly well. The story is based on a novel and this predigre shows itself in the complexity of the plot. If the hysterics of the characters was toned down somewhat, it would make a decent straight to video movie for today's audiences. While the ending falls flat (too used to today's slam bang finishes), the last image is surprisingly effective.
If you are a fan of old TV - find a place to get these old Thrillers; you will be surprised by what our not so bright TV executives are not yet making available to the general public.
