Dark Intruder (1965)


Feeling like a pilot of a busted TV series (which it is) but with big screen aspirations, Dark Intruder is a really good supernatural thriller about a killer possessed by a demon and the detective, Leslie Nielsen, trying to work out who or what is behind the killings.

Moving like the wind the film tears through events as a breakneck speed leaving us little time to think or breath. It is a perfectly compact thriller that leaves you wanting more. I would have loved this to have gone to a series, either in the movies or TV. (Though to be honest by the time this was released to theaters the ability for an old school series was nil).

The discovery of this film was an absolute unexpected delight. It was so good that as soon as I finished it I watched it again.

Highly recommended.
