One of the most seen and talked about film noirs and people are still seeing it today. Alpha Video offers you a very fine print here. Edmond O'Brien (The Killers [1946]) plays a man who needs to get away from his job for a couple of weeks, so he goes to San Francisco. While at a jive joint, his drink was switched by a mysterious man. The next morning he feels ill so he goes to the doctor. He is told very seriously he has a luminous toxic matter inside of him and there is no cure for it. He has only days left to live. He's in a race against time to find out who poisoned him. As of this writing, of the cast that is still alive, the lovely Beverly Garland (My Three Sons tv series), who played "Miss Foster" and Henry Hart who played "Stanley".
