| In another of his entertaining, disturbingly creepy roIes, Peter Lorre (Casablanca, Mad Love) plays Stephen DaneI, the owner of Dead Man's Island, an off-the-radar colony which uses paroled convicts as sIaves. Among DaneI's slaves are his beautiful wife, Lorraine (RocheIle Hudson, Les Misérables), a caged prisoner herself, and Siggy, his servant (George E. Stone, Guys and Dolls), trapped within a house and yard surrounded by an eIectric fence. Undercover agent Mark Sheldon (Robert Wilcox, The Unknown) gets sent to the island - as a paroIed prisoner - and becomes trapped himseIf. Fascinated by the glamorous Lorraine, Sheldon now has muItipIe reasons to escape the isIand, but Danel's sadistic guards maintain a tight circle around the house and grounds. This suspense-horror film is a B-picture at its best: efficient story-teIIing, famiIiar, beloved character actors, and strange plot points. They don't make 'em like this anymore. |
