Torment

This thriller is truly odd.Two brothers are novelists sharing a big house and a secretary.They are both writing murder mysteries.John Bentley is in love with the Secretary Rona Anderson.Dermot Walsh is too,only she doesn't love him.Unfortunately Dermot is barking mad.We know this because not only does he kill a visiting ex convict but also the family cat.Unfortunately Walsh's performance is so over the top that that the film is totally unhinged.It becomes unintentionally funny.Walsh sets up a situation where Bentley goes off on a wild goose chase giving him the opportunity to kill Anderson.However Bentley arrives back in time to prevent it.The climax is just as daft as what had proceeded it.
