Not one of Fritz Lang's better movies, slow and a little too much going on to comfortably watch. Dana Andrews plays a heavy drinking reporter and this performance is worth a look.

slow and hokey at times...on the plus side: fritz lang, ida lupino, and a sexy serial killer played by drew barrymore's father.

Harsh, leering, implausible and fascinating -- it's the type of yarn that might have been dramatized in 'The Strangler,' the fictional dime horror comic that is the favorite reading matter of the story's over-aged j.d. 'mama's boy' murderer.

I knew those filthy comic books caused all sorts of degeneracy and hooliganism! It's a good thing that virtually no one reads that trash anymore or we'd be innundated with serial killers who sweat a lot and impregnate women who give birth to Drew Barrymore...

I made it through this film but was not really impressed. The pace was slow and the dialogue only slightly above average. The climax of the film was less than satisfying. I did find some of the historical aspects and cliches used interesting...The copious amounts of cigarettes smoked and the close ties between the police and the media were the parts that fascinated me the most. It was a lightweight experience...by no means a waste but, by no means memorable.
