Audience Reviews for Cause for Alarm
-
Plays like an episode of the TV show Alfred Hitchcock Presents instead of one of Hitchcock's theatrical films.
-
This is a brilliant suspense film, Young gives a fantastic performance as a wife who doesn't want to be suspected for murdering her husband. Great story, I loved it.
-
High strung melodrama with Loretta at a fever pitch almost the whole way through. Plays more like an extended episode from an old anthology series than a feature and a rather nonsensical one at that.
