| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzAside from being well directed, this melodrama has little else to recommend it. |
| Classic Film and TelevisionMichael E. GrostStrange little mystery thriller, with some good visual style from director Budd Boetticher. |
| User ReviewKevin RSérie-b bem nutrido de vitaminas pulp e noir é espectacularmente eficiente no modo como desenvolve a sua história de um infiltrado no manicómio (e isto quinze anos antes de "Shock Corridor"). Budd Boetticher nunca foi um realizador muito considerado, mas aqui demonstra que sabe guiar uma boa trama tendo como veículo o igualmente incansável Richard Carlson. De resto, qualquer filme em que Tor Johnson aplique uns bons socos merece uma estrela a mais só por isso. |
| User ReviewIlsa LA fine example of the genre of a sane man going undercover, getting unjustly locked up, as a patient in a mental institution. |
