As Roy and Gilbert (Edmond O'Brien and Frank Lovejoy) head off on a fishing trip, they make a big mistake: they pick up a hitchhiker, Emmett (William Talman), a sadistic, psychotic killer. Emmett takes the pair hostage and forces them to cross the desert and enter Mexico, playing a cat and mouse game with them on the way. A good film noir directed by the 1930s and 1940s star, Ida Lupino.
