"Better than average programme filler.", 19 April 2005

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

At a hospital dispensary, three out-patients are given a fatal poison by mistake and the police are called in to track down the patients before catastrophe happens.

Short and sharp programme filler produced in just seven days at the legendary Bray studios by Hammer in March 1957. The interesting cast includes Mervyn Johns who played one of the major leads in Ealing's classic portmanteau film "Dead Of Night" (1945). Philip Friend appeared in such notable wartime films as "In Which We Serve" (1942) and Honor Blackman would soon achieve fame in the classic British spy show "The Avengers". The plot turns include euthanasia and I don't know of many other films from the era that dealt with such a sensitive and compelling subject. This film is also distinguished from other b-features of that era because it wasn't produced by the poverty row studios such as "Butcher's", who produced many of these at the time and because it was made by Hammer we are not saddled with the usual cop-out ending and the quality of the acting is also better than your standard b-pic.

DANGER LIST is rarely seen these days but DD Video have just released it on DVD as a bonus feature with the company's STOLEN FACE (1952: see my review).
