The legendary story that hovers over Orson Welles' The Stranger is that he wanted Agnes Moorehead to star as the dogged Nazi hunter who trails a war criminal to a sleepy New England town. The part went to Edward G. Robinson, who is marvellous, but it points out how many compromises Welles made on the film in an attempt to show Hollywood he could make a film on time, on budget and on their own terms. He accomplished all three, turning out a stylish if unambitious film noir thriller, his only Hollywood film to turn a profit on its original release. Welles stars as unreformed fascist Franz Kindler, hiding as a schoolteacher in a New England prep school for boys and newly married to the headmaster's lovely if naive daughter (Loretta Young). Welles, the director, is in fine form for the opening sequences, casting a moody tension as agents shadow a twitchy low-level Nazi official skulking through South American ports and building up to dramatic crescendo as Kindler murders this little man, the lovely woods becoming a maelstrom of swirling leaves that expose the body he furiously tries to bury. The rest of the film is a well designed but conventional cat-and-mouse game featuring an eye-rolling performance by Welles and a thrilling conclusion played out in the dark clock tower that looms over the little village. --Sean Axmaker

But now ever-expanding industrial plants have replaced the summer homes and in place of the friends with whom he played a hidden and unimaginable terror lurks. Within minutes Patrick's world collapses as his family are attacked by fearsome creatures leaving him orphaned and unable to describe the traumatic events he barely survived. Patrick's grandmother locates Victoria Juno a fiercely committed young doctor who believes she can help him. She decides that the best way to dislodge Patrick's memories is to return him to the scene of his terror - the island whose bloodthirsty inhabitants robbed him of the ones he loved. But the devilish terror that existed before has grown in number and ferocity. When Patrick Dr. Juno and their party arrive on the island they are met with deadly consequences. Dr. Juno must take on insurmountable odds in order to recover Patrick's psychological well-being and Patrick must come face to face with his greatest fear.
