Cameo says:One of my favorite Hitchcock movies, super suspenseful & such great acting. A diabolical young man & his friend (maybe boyfriend) commit cold blooded murder & then proceeds to entertain guests w/ the body right under their noses. His cockiness leads to their inevitable downfall but watching it play out is completely riveting. |
