While the army and a group of scientists work on finding a chink in the robots' armor, Nora (Kathleen Crowley), Frank (Richard Denning), Vicki (Virginia Grey), and Jim (Richard Reeves) take refuge in an abandoned hotel. There, they find Davis (Robert Roark) a psychopathic killer who won't let such a crisis curb his murderous tendencies. This overlooked piece of 1950's isolation/paranoia-based science-fiction is based on the Paul W. Fairman's novel, THE DEADLY CITY. [More]
