Jul 27, 2021Glenn Ford and Lee Remick competently star in this Blake Edwards not-so-subtle take on a Alfred Hitchcock style thriller about a deranged criminal lowlife type threatening a bank teller unless she robs a bank for him. While the cinematic execution is well done (with memorable musical accompaniment by Henry Mancini's spooky score) it's Ross Martin's nutso psycho killer who steals the work and who you root for.Kevin M.

Oct 23, 2020If I taught a filming class I'd have Experiment In Terror in the syllabus under "Opening Scenes," as director Blake Edwards does a phenomenal job of establishing suspense, mood, and detailing the movie's premise in the first ten minutes. Credit goes to Henry Mancini's memorable score and Lee Remick's woman-in-danger lead role.Aldo G Super Reviewer

Nov 28, 2015Blake Edwards' taut-suspense classic about a beautiful bank clerk, played wonderfully by Lee Remick who is terrorized by a murderous asthmatic-voiced extortionist, chilling played by Ross Martin, that is planing to use her to steal a $100,000 from the bank where she works. An FBI agent, superbly played by Glenn Ford, that Remick managed to contact is now aiding her in trying to apprehended the psychotic Martin who has threaten to kill her and her young sister. Exceptional direction by Edwards, who gives his thriller some serious edge-of-your-seat moments. Solid, convincing supporting performances by Stefanie Powers, Roy Poole, Ned Glass, and Aita Loo. Glorious black & white cinematography by Phillip H. Lathrop, and a great Henry Manicini score. A realistic and compelling motion picture thriller. Highly Recommended.Danny R Super Reviewer

Dec 13, 2011If you have patience to sit around & wait for something to happen then watch this movie but if you don't........ I found Experiment In Terror to be boring & the only thing I enjoyed about it was the opening scene & the bathroom scene towards the end.Other then that, I felt like I was watching some cheap old low budget B/W cops Vs. criminal B movieBrody M Super Reviewer
