Robert Wise's, "Born to Kill" stars the truly terrifying

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Lawrence Tierney (you may know him as Joe, the mastermind in Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs") who, it seems, was extremely violent and unpredictable in "real" life.
Tow people brutally are killed in a rooming home and the woman that found the bodies decides that, since she has no evidence, she'll just move on.
Soon, however, the killer seeks her out and falls prey to her beauty but, as he warns her, only as long as she doesn't disappoint him. Did I mention the lady's sister falls for him, too?
This film cleverly leaves many questions unanswered, allowing the viewer to try and figure out who knows what and when they may have found it out.
Elisha Cook Jr., Walter Slezak both have wonderful roles playing up to their strengths.
The best reason to see the film is Tierney's performance: truly scary, as very few actors can be.
