The Sadist (1963)



Three people driving into Los Angeles for a Dodgers game have car trouble and pull off into an old wrecking yard where they are held at bay by a bloodthirsty psycho and his crazy girlfriend.

Tough, mean-spirited and quite effective low-budget thriller with good editing and cinematography (Vilmos Zsigmond!); Arch Hall Jr. is remarkable as the terrifying psychopath.

Maltin**1/2: "Taut little B picture...Hall is distressingly believable as the psycho.Imaginatively shot by Vilmos (billed as William) Zsigmond."
