Old School Thriller

Verified Purchase:Yes
Billy Wider's "Witness for the Prosecution" is a classic whodunit with a dream cast of players but the show is stolen by Charles Laughton and his wife Elsa Lanchester playing a crusty attorney and his ever watchful health minded nurse. The glamour is added by Marlene Dietrich and Tyrone Power as lovers trying to save him from the Gallows. It's all smartly told and presented with a nice twist in the end. If only Hollywood could make a movie as good these days.

A troubled ex-FBI agent (Kevin Bacon) is called back to work when a serial killer (James Purefoy) escapes death row and proceeds to embark on another killing spree based on the works of the iconic author Edgar Allan Poe.

On the edge thrills

"The Following" is probably the best of recent dark natured TV serials. "Bates Motel" and "Hannibal" have their charms but "The Following" has Kevin Williamson of "Scream" fame running the ship and Kevin Bacon as ex-FBI agent Ryan Hardy trying to recapture a serial killer who now has a cult behind him doing his dirty work. Don't get to attached to many characters for they come and go in very nasty ways. There is an air of paranoia running throughout where you can't even trust a nanny to be a good guy. James Purefoy deserves attention as Joe Carroll, Hardy's foil. He's so twisted. Charming one minute and a calculating psycho the next. "The Following" is a terrific binge watch. Season 2 is in broadcast now and the quality has not lessened. If you like twisty, scary and occasionally horrifying "The Following" is the one to watch.
