SYNOPSIS:"Ask mother," says the message scrawled in lipstick at a murder scene by an unknown serial killer who preys on women. It’s a sensational story – if it bleeds, it leads – and a news conglomerate offers a big promotion to the high-level company exec who solves the case. So begins the wheeling, dealing and backstabbing of the competing media hotshots as they vie to unmask the so-called Lipstick Killer.
Fritz Lang (The Big Heat), whose early-career expressionist works would strongly influence the film-noir genre, directs this stylistically understated noir that features an abundance of starpower rare for the genre: Dana Andrews, Rhonda Fleming, George Sanders, Thomas Mitchell, Vincent Price, Ida Lupino and other notables.

  | Robert S. | | A good semi-procedural crime-drama as cops and newspapers chase leads about a serial killer that had to make Bostonians shudder after their real-life endurance within a decade. |
