The Night of the Hunter (1955)

  • Summary

  • Robert Mitchum, the original king of creep, leads this spooky tale of a murderous criminal claiming to be a preacher just so he can get $10,000 from his ex-cellmate's kids. The film features brilliant set dressing, cinematography, and performances from Mitchum, Lillian Gish, Shelley Winters, and Billy Chapin. Dan and Jon celebrate all of the things that make The Night of the Hunter a classic and imagine new ways it could be revisited.
