- Quotes
Jill Shadwell: I wonder how many of them are ever cured?
Major Peters: Cured? My dear, they're criminal lunatics - they're little better than brutes.
Jill Shadwell: I suppose it is terribly difficult to know what to do with people like that.
Major Peters: Is it? What do you do with a mad dog?
Featured review
Well made British B picture
The fact that there are only 2 other reviews testify to the fact that this is virtually unknown.Yet it is an exciting,thoughtful and well made film with an excellent cast.Derren Nesbitt is especially good particularly since in some ways he is playing against type.There seem to be so many threads and characters running through this film that it is difficult to realise that it runs just over an hour.One gets the feeling that Butcher's spent the absolute minimum on this film,though they still manage to get a reasonable standard of production out of it.The film made a welcome return to the TV screen with its recent showing on Talking Picture TV.
