This time, Trevor Howard stars as Browne, the wealthy hermit who thrives on hunting down human beings like wild animals.

When their plane is forced to land in Browne's domain, Mike Latimer (Richard Widmark) and Katy Conners (Jane Greer) are captured by the villains. Browne offers his captives an hour's head-start to freedom, then sics his hunting dogs on the hapless pair. The rest of the film details the strenuous efforts by Latimer and Conners to escape with their lives.

Customer Reviews

Adventure and thrills
This is a great, old-fashioned adventure thriller with terrific locaton filming which adds a real air of authenticity to the whole proceedings. The DVD is bare-bones but great quality - anamorphic widescreen 2.35:1 taken from a very nice, sharp, colourful print free of defects.

If you love old British adventure movies like this and "Northwest Frontier", check this one out. It's dirty, sweaty and gritty, and always entertaining.

Great Classic
Another Great Classic worthy of any collection... holds up through the years for action and adventure... which it would come out in U.S. Region format soon.....
