A beautiful actress often forgotten: Luana Patten, a pleasure to watch her. R.I.P.🙏🙏🙏
Love these low budget "B" features from the late 50s ! THANKS so much for uploading. SPOILERS : "The weed of crime bears bitter fruit....crime does NOT pay" (thus sayeth "The Shadow" - aka Lamont Cranston).
Glad you liked it!
@@robtw88 I sure did! 👍🤓
Long time fan of 50s and 60s films,strangely enough never seen this gem, fabulous acted,not see the main bad guy before, he certainly was using the method acting style to great effect, wonderful performance, curious to speculate what someone like James Dean would of done with the role.Thanks for posting a good quality add free print,fully appreciated.
Glad you liked it!
@@robtw88 Found out about Steve Marlo,woe interesting .life a d career,made a living as a actor,but never became a big star, new Paul Newman,Steve McQueen, James Dean, Brando, incredible, was Brandos Standin,actor associate for 6 months on One eyed Jack's,, The stories he must have,he never did get that book written, what a shame ,wou,d of made a fantastic read,I bet he met Glen at some point.
Thanks for the upload Rob, really enjoyed the film. I knew someone very similar to the psycho character, fortunately he wasn't a killer, just never stopped talking and was full of big ideas.
This was a great surprise. I was expecting a very average film, but it turned out to be far better than expected....Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Much much better than expected ! It was great !
@@dizzman5546 I agree!
I see Dan Blocker’s name in the credits! He played large brother Hoss in the iconic western Bonanza back in the day with Michael Landon, Pernell Roberts and Lorne Greene as Pa. All wonderful actors on an extremely popular series.
In case you didn't recognize him, Dais, he was the big guy with the beard who chased the bad guy away at the oil rig.
Thanks Rob W
Fantastic😊
I'll watch it tonight. Huge THANKS👌
Awesome movie...ashamed of myself for laughing when he started whipping him with the antenna though lol
Just had to watch ⌚ two ✌ times in a row..🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks x2 :)
I enjoyed the movie 🎬 classic 👌 😄
Never seen Ed Nelson in a bad flick yet. One of better B movie stars, along with Beverly Garland and Mike "touch' Connors.
"Tres ciento mil dollars!" ("Any Gun Can Play")
Thanks RW
Who would have thought teens could be that bad in 1959? Glad I was still a young kid. All kidding aside, this was a fine film with an interesting story line. Filming was better than "B".
Yes, Irvin Kershner went on to direct big budget 'prestige' projects like Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back and Never Say Never Again, but his talent was already apparent in this fast-paced low budget gem.
I know I am going to watch the film a few times this week. Thank you Rob again.!
You're welcome!
Really well done film, thanks!
B+ movie, maybe an A
Steven Marlo is a really good actor.
Died: November 7, 2019 (age 92 years)
Never heard of him before.
Probably the oil driller who chased them off the platform.
Yes, I never heard of him either...he is pretty good...a cross between Paul Newman in Looks and Marlon Brando in style / persona.
@@stashyboy1 Dan Blocker
Thank you
You're welcome
Great Flick' Yonda 🎉🎉🎉
Yes it was!
Excellent program
Glad you liked it!
🎉🎉🎉lm surprised this is a great movie 🎦 what a great fight scene ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
TY, another B/W feature. Does it get any better?
Ed Nelson and Dan Blocker!!
A very good movie for its time. That's why Hollywood was so successful in the world. In any other country in the world, this kind of a movie would be twice as long and pretty boring.
That was a very good movie. The young lady looked like Brooke Shields.
The kids were a cute couple.
Thx Rob W. 👍🇺🇸👍
Good girls always after bad boys,,,,
You seriously have a problem. At no time in this movie did the girls go after "the bad boys." Get help for twisting the story into a warped interpretation.
Maybe, but not in this case
Dan Blocker in a small role.
Wow ! there seemed to be so many of these "Captivity" / High -Jack themed films----they're a genre onto themselves. One could go back to 1935's Show Them No Mercy and find the same narrative of a innocent couple held hostage by psycho criminal. Never heard of Steve Marlo until now...obviously takes his chiseled looks from Paul Newman and persona from Marlon Barndo !
Ya live like there ain't going to be any tomorrow, you haven't have one coming."
Dude is a complete psychopath. What a moral panic this film must have created. 😀😀😀
Great movie. 🎉
Glad you liked it!
Friday Pizza-day ! And yet another old movie to discover ! Let it rain or snow outside, I don't care ! Let there be noisy youngsters ready to go out, I don't care... And judging from the comments, I'm in for a surprise, so.... let the show begin !
Lesson of movie: do not allow teenage hormones to ruin your life. You’re liable to run away to Mexico to get married.
❤
Back when you could shank and shove a 125 lb Dame in the trunk of a land barge in short order and not miss a lick? The good old days
LOL How true )
Knife crime in movies!
Probably inspired by Charles Starkweather
You youngsters don't be e-lopin' down to Old Meh-hee-co ya here?
And eat yer vegegegegetables!😊
A movie made for teenagers: something that began in the 50s.
You're absolutely right! In the mid-fifties, Hollywood studios discovered that more than 70% of their audience was aged 12 to 26 so consequently they began producing a slew of movies aimed at a younger audience.
Was that Horse Cartright on the oil rig??
It was. Don't blink or you'll miss him. 3 lines.
@@monkmcallister2062 Thank you very much for letting me know. Greetings from Australia.
Would anyone know if 'Tom Seldon'. the boyfriend, is still alive, I couldnt find any information on his life at all on the internet?
According to IMDb he is still alive at 94 and this was his last acting credit.
@@robtw88 Rob, He is 94 years old !!! How did you find that out, that is amazing, he's still alive!,
I searched high and low on the internet. Thank you so much from Australia (kangaroos/koalas). I will have a look on IMDb too.
@@robtw88 Wow that is amazing. I will now have a look at IMDb for further information. Thank you very much Rob.
I wish he had a decent career in films. Looks like he just appeared a few times.
