Strange Intruder

Purdom plays a combat shocked veteran back home to visit his best friend's widow, and consider his dying wish that he kill her children because they are being raised by her new French lover. Combat scenes of chaos open the show, it seems those North Koreans are good at stabbing with bayonets and making prisoners drink dirty water. A strange suspension of disbelief is introduced. It seems Purdom might be an incurable psychopath, but the veteran's hospital released him anyway. How it ends might be quite a surprise as Ida Lupino struggles to bring him back to safe base.
