Alain E @AlainE Nov 4 Totally unrealistic. In the scene in the beginning the guy shoots at the police through his front door and injures an officer. The police returns fire and kill his wife. When they miraculously break the door down (the first time they tried the door looked solid) they don’t make any attempt to use handcuffs on the guy who just shot at them. At court he receives just 10 years for attempted murder! That was enough for me. See more 04/28/2015 Mildly interesting crime drama starring a lackluster Wendell Corey as the bank teller gone bad, seeking revenige for the accidental shooting of his wife. Rhonda Fleming is fabulous as wife of cop Corey is after. See more 04/11/2015 Tightly directed Budd Boetticher thriller about cop Joseph Cotten who accidentally kills bank robber Wendell Corey's wife following a heist. Corey escapes from prison and wants to get revenge on Cotten. I've never really though much of Wendell Corey as an actor and always found him kind of wooden, but he's terrifically effective as creepy killer who you also manages to generate a certain amount of sympathy in a pathetic sort of way. But the real star of the film is Boetticher's suspenseful direction.

See more 11/23/2012 "The Killer Is Loose" is a watchable police yarn that ultimately suffers from an incompetent final act and a short running time that allows us little interaction with the characters. The performances are all fine, but the action is the kind of stuff you've seen a thousand times before. Still, it works as a great time-passer. See more Read all reviews
