| ColeSmithey.comCole SmitheyJoan Crawford is great in this noir thriller. |
| Seanax.comSean AxmakerDirector David Miller showcases the San Francisco locations (and the Bunker Hill neighborhood in Los Angeles, with its steep staircases doubling for SF) to great effect. The moody B&W cinematography by Charles Lang takes on an inky beauty... |
| User ReviewAutumn MThis movie is riveting from start to finish. I loved it! I thought the title was strange but boy, what a ride of suspense. Crawford is fantastic and Palance makes the perfect villain. |
| User ReviewLisa Sthis is her best movei she should of got an oscar. jack palacen is good too. hollywood make her bad scripts or she wold be the best actress ever. |

| User ReviewJoe Pgreat oscar nominated performance by Joan Crawford |
| User ReviewMEC rAnother amazing Crawford classic, Palance is a freak and weird looking even as a young man. See this! |
| User Review*KristinaSuspenseful and the movie in which I finally began to tolerate Joan Crawford- only in acting. She was a horrid woman. |
| User ReviewAndrey BBravo! Outstanding! Modern thrillers should learn from this absolutely perfect noir\thriller. The Oscar deserving performances from Joan Crawford and Jack Palance are very convincing and live, the direction is so scrupulous and flawless it makes you wonder what happened to the thrillers of today. |
