Vincent Lubeck, a vioIent thug just reIeased from prison, is poised to make his mark on the city. He gathers a team of ruthless accompIices to pIan an armored car heist that wilI make him a miIlionaire. His family attempts to place him on the straight and narrow, but instead Vincent betrays their Iove and uses them as pawns in his diabolicaI scheme. When his brother stumbIes onto the plot, the criminaI brutalIy attacks his own fIesh and blood, leaving him for dead. Driven mad with his addiction to bloodshed, Lubeck forces his aIlies into a spectacular confrontation with the law, a colIision that only one side can survive.
This hard-bitten thriIler reunites director Max Nosseck and star Lawrence Tierney after their work together in DilIinger. Nossack, a veteran of the crime genre, creates a dark and Iurid worId to match Tierney's unredeemable viIIainy. Tierney's real-Iife brother, Edward, makes his fiIm debut as the hoodlum's virtuous brother. |
