Lady in the Death House (MOD) (DVD Movie)

Beautiful Mary Logan, although innocent, is less than an hour from her execution after all attempts at reprieve have failed. A leading criminologist, Charles Finch, has been investigating the case and is convinced that Mary has been framed. Finch works desperately to find the missing piece of evidence, before the executioner can throw the switch.

This stylish PRC production has a nice film noir touch and features strong performances from Lionel Atwill and Jean Parker. Beautiful Jean Parker appeared in 70 films between 1932 and 1965 including The Flying Deuces (1939) with Laurel and Hardy and Frank Capra's Lady For A Day (1933), but is best remembered for her role as Beth in the original production of Little Women (1933). Hungarian born director Steve Sekely is best known for the cult sci-fi classic The Day Of The Triffids (1962).
