In 1955 audiences were shocked by one of the first mainstream films depicting the terrorizing of a family in their suburban home. Humphrey Bogart stars as escaped murderer, Glen Griffith, who holds a nuclear family hostage. Imagine Leave it to Beaver meets In Cold Blood. This film helped spawn the "home-invasion" sub-genre still popular today. Despite its frightening subject matter, the film was well-received by audiences at the time and today is highly regarded by critics. Corbin and Allen present their review of an often forgotten Bogart classic, The Desperate Hours.
