This 1955 movie was the best vehicle for Robert Mitchum! I can't imagine anyone else in the roll of a twisted, psychotic preacher. The movie had me on pins and needles while I was watching it. It is very difficult to watch a man void of feelings and willing to kill two small innocent children for their father's money. Lillian Gish makes a wonderful appearance in this depression-era story. Her kind heart in taking in many children who have been abandoned. Watch Mitchell go from a smooth, slick, sweet talking preacher to satan himself. Best role he ever played!
"The Night of the Hunter" is a true, film noir classic. It's a scary psycho-drama about a Jack-the-Ripper grifter who victimizes females in order to steal their money. He pretends to be a preacher to gain the women's confidence. It's a creepy scenario and involves one mother's, two children fleeing with the money as the, now, step-dad terrorizes them. This movie is different from most and in a very intriguing way. I recommend it to any, classic film fan, especially film noir fans.

Great dark classic with Mitchum playing one of his best roles. Filmed in black and white, this melodrama follows a drifter trying to steal money from an innocent beauty, played ny Shelly Winters. The tatooes on Mitchum's hands should be immortalized, much like a memorable quote. Fans of Mitchum shouldn't miss this one. Talk about a creepy double feature, see this one right after Cape Fear.
A very suspenseful movie that keeps you engaged. True acting at its best. The directing, lighting and timing of the lines and scenes are spectacular. A work of art. You will never forget this movie once you’ve watched it.
