...creepy prologue, the terrors to come are capsuled in a roadside cafe owner's blazing vengeance on a rapist who attacks his daughter, lovely Liliane Brousse. For this, the father is adjudged insane and sent to an asylum. Four years later, itinerant Artist Kerwin Mathews happens along, promptly falls in love with Wife-Stepmother Nadia Gray and agrees to help her husband escape. What happens next? Just about everything, most of it unexpected, non-formula, and deftly contrived to lead the audience into a maze of wrong assumptions...

How to stop...
...Jimmy can't expect me to stand up and praise him for the crooked life he's led," wrote the father of Murderer-Rapist James Hanratty (TIME, March 2) in London's Daily Express (circ. 4,328,524). Elsewhere in the paper, the girl Hanratty raped relived her travail: "I thought he wouldn't do it. I thought it could never happen, that I was dreaming." London's Sunday Pictorial (5,306,246) weighed in with first-person accounts from the beautician who dyed the fugitive killer's hair, and from other members...
