Sobre este artículo
Los Angeles: RKO Radio Pictures, 1951. Vintage banner poster from the 1951 film.
Elliott Reid, a magazine writer on a fishing vacation in Wisconsin, stumbles upon a nearly deserted town, where all of the fish have mysteriously died and the villagers are either tight-lipped or outright hostile, eventually uncovering a communist plot to poison the US water supply.
Originally written and shot as a speculative drama about Nazis in a plot to hide a still-alive Hitler and involved in germ warfare, RKO president, Howard Hughes, insisted the plot be changed to make communists the threat, rather than Nazis, (1951 being the height of McCarthyism and US anti-communist hysteria) and ordered extensive re-writes and re-shoots.
Set in the fictional town of Winnoga, Wisconsin, shot on location at Big Bear Lake, San Bernardino National Forest, California.
81 x 24 inches. Very Good plus, with light rubbing and faint creasing overall, with four closed tears in the margins.
Grant US. Lyons, Death on the Cheap. Selby US. Spicer US.
