The Night Holds Terror

(1955)Directed by Andrew L. Stone86 minCrime, Thriller, Drama
“Three young, empty-eyed killers, without mercy or morals, turn a private home into a house of horror!”

Three men leave the Courtier family's car and drive it away with the family inside, and nobody in the house can say why they were chosen. Gene Courtier (Jack Kelly) and his wife Doris (Hildy Parks) are held through the night by Victor Gosset (Vince Edwards) and his accomplices, while the police close in. Andrew L. Stone, working from a true incident, shows how an ordinary household can be taken over by strangers.
