Nightkill (1980)
Katy (Smith) è la moglie infelice e trascurata di Wandell Atwell, un industriale rozzo e alcolizzato; Steve è socio di Atwell e decide di sopprimerlo per poter poi sposare Katy, anche se la donna si oppone all'omicidio. All'arrivo di Donner (Mitchum), un ambiguo tenente di polizia, Katy cerca di far sparire il corpo del marito, ma al suo posto trova quello di Steve con un buco in testa. Il classico triangolo infernale diventa un quadrato. Il film manca un po' di concentrazione, soprattutto a causa di una sceneggiatura pigra, ma ha suspence e c'è un Mitchum alla fine che da solo vale la visione.
