Blobbo X @Blobbo Jul 13, 2023 Movie lives up to title...Mimi screams! Very nicely photographed, too. Bonus has jazz great Red Norvo on vibes in small segment. See more Nov 10, 2015 Hooty low budget affair isn't too hard to figure out but has the attractions of a stunning Anita Ekberg and one of the rare appearances of Gypsy Rose Lee. See more Mar 21, 2013 a real cult item in the film noir filmography, weird and lurid and kitschy, but fascinating all the same. See more Jan 29, 2010 Inept mystery yarn with Anita Ekberg as a bonus for male viewers. Richard W. Nason, film critic for The New York Times, wrote, "It is a modern case of an artist's unintended voodoo over a girl who undergoes a traumatic experience. It is an effective film of its kind, thanks to some reflective dialogue by Robert Blees and a sense of suspense on the part of Gerd Oswald, the director. Anita Ekberg, who does more acting here than before, is the star. Gypsy Rose Lee and Phil Carey are also on the ball." She is a dancer who thinks she's committed murder. No, the script is murder. Cast Anita Ekberg as Virginia Wilson aka Yolanda Lange Philip Carey as Bill Sweeney Gypsy Rose Lee as Joann "Gypsy" Mapes Harry Townes as Dr. Greenwood aka Green Linda Cherney as Ketti Romney Brent as Charlie Weston Alan Gifford as Captain Bline Oliver McGowan as Walter Krieg Red Norvo as Red Yost Red Norvo Trio as Musical Ensemble Directed by Gerd Oswald Produced by Harry Joe Brown Robert Fellows Written by Story: Fredric Brown Screenplay: Robert Blees Music by Mischa Bakaleinikoff Cinematography Burnett Guffey Editing by Gene Havlick Jerome Thoms Distributed by Columbia Pictures Release date(s) June 25, 1958 Running time 79 minutes See more Read all reviews
