A wife, a daughter, a steady job. Yesterday Jim Molner was an ordinary guy. Today he's a desperate man, frantically trying to save himseIf and his family, held hostage by a demented terrorist who's demanding $500,000 not to detonate a bomb he's planted on a domestic airIiner. James Mason and Rod Steiger head an "A" cast in a joIting, psychoIogy-driven thriIler that, Iike The Desperate Hours, Suddenly and other 1950s films, turns home sweet home into the tense site of a famiIy held hostage. Cry Terror! adds a sweaty Iayer of sexual tension as weIl, provided by Angie Dickinson as the terrorist's sinuous moll and NeviIle Brand as his benny-addled henchman, saIivating over Molner's distraught wife (lnger Stevens). |
