“Three young, empty-eyed killers, without mercy or morals, turn a private home into a house of horror!”
The Night Holds Terror 1955
Based on a true crime, A nice suburban family man Gene Courtier makes the mistake of picking up a hitch-hiker who turns out to be dangerous escaped convict Victor Gosset, on the run from the police.Â
His gang proceeds to hold Courtier’s family hostage at their home at gunpoint.
As time ticks on, the situation becomes more tense and volatile culminating into a living nightmare!
Directed and written by Andrew L. Stone as a crime noir thriller, it stars Jack Kelly and Hildy Parks as the Courtiers and Vince Edwards as the ruthless woman hungry Victor Gosset.
At first Gosset wants Courtier to sell his car for the cash, but Batsford (Cassavettes) wants to hold the family hostage for the ransom money instead…
Also stars John Cassavettes as Robert Batsford. and David Cross as Luther Logan the other two men in Gosset’s gang. A real gripping thriller!
“With a gasp in your throat… and a gun at your back!”
Don’t pick up any hitch-hikers, but of course you knew that by now-MonsterGirl cares!
This looks like a good one!
Also, I like how the hoodlums all have matching hair.

Even authors with traditional publishing contracts in hand are having to do more and more of their own marketing. Increasingly, indie and traditional authors are relying on the same promotional strategies to get the word out about their titles, and it’s hard work! Jennifer
