Enjoyable noir from one of the great 'B' directors, Edgar G. Ulmer. A young man (Jimmy Lydon), disturbed by premonitions, tries to prevent his mother from marrying a man (Warren William) he finds suspicious. An interesting little picture with some nice atmosphere and bits of weirdness that Ulmer was so good at. The cast is good. William is always great. Lydon's performance is corny and odd but that's part of the appeal of the picture. Regis Toomey is solid in a role suited to his sometimes wooden screen presence. I really liked this for what it is. It's not a Detour or My Name is Julia Ross kind of B classic but it is much much better than the average movie of its type from that time.
