This film was in the Horor Box collection, strange because it was clearly a crime film. But Boris Karloff as a horror icon who is now in a crime film is special to see.

Nice crime film with the typical crime fashion such as mafia hats and long coats. The acting was quite nice and the atmosphere/setting was quite good. 3.0.
