Well this gloomy doomey looking film, really set of my miserable day which was just as gloomy and miserable outside. This bleak film set mostly in marsh land added a certain slash wrist genre to this film.
Davidson (John Mills) is a man who has just been released from doing a 12 year stint in prison for a crime he did not commit. Seething with revenge, he starts out looking for the people who set him up so he can administer his revenge.
I must say, after a while this film was engaging, and I sat through and watched to the end. At times is was slow and wordy but also came over as a bit of early Hitchcock film noir.
