As far I remember I'd never watched old picture with such offering, where a crook Vince Ryker (Vince Eduards) stealing a sealed capsule which he believes be pure heroine, instead a high radioactive cobalt 60 stolen from the prison where he was imprisoned for eight years long, he got escape with a sidekick that was deadly wound in the endeavor.
He headed to Los Angeles where has a mobster Eddie Call (Joseph Mell) just him can receive the valuable heroine, meanwhile the police figure out that such capsule contains actually the poisoned Cobalt 60, if the capsule for any reason be open should be killing over that three thousand people in whole city, the Chief of Los Angeles Jensen (Lyle Talbot) decides doesn't alarm the citizens and also the Burglar aiming for doesn't create any panic at all, assisted by the veteran Lt. Mark Richards (John Archer) they settled a bold plan calling a expert in this field Dr. John Wallace (Steven Ritch).
They spreading along the L. A. 25 Geiger counters that should scan the Cobalt 60 , this bold idea had his first good achievements in some spots that linked with the holder of the cylinder, soon the Vince already sick die the hard exposition with the radioactive capsule.
The City of fear despite displays a genuine story, it's somehow expose a destitute one plot only, without twist and others elements often expose in Noir movie, then stays stuck in one premise only, spoils a good story, in other hand appears the gorgeous redhead Patricia Blair as Vince's affair, she is mostly well-known in the series Daniel Boone where she walk on runway along the series, what a woman!!
Thanks for reading.
