John Sturges's macho B-picture is more brawn than brains...but what brawn!

Time Out
I think it's really great the way it addresses the way small communities and isolated communities close in on themselves to protect ugliness.
At the Movies (Australia)
This was an early CinemaScope film, and William Mellor frames it all beautifully. It's an outstanding thriller.
At the Movies (Australia)
Considerable excitement is whipped up in this suspense drama, and fans who go for tight action will find it entirely satisfactory.

Variety
Nicely put together by Sturges, its suspense derives largely from the excellent performances and imaginative use of the 'Scope frame by cameraman William C Mellor.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
Slowly, through a process of guarded discourse, which Director John Sturges has built up by patient, methodical pacing of his almost completely mate cast, an eerie light begins to glimmer.

An action film for people who don't like action films.
