Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

LastingAware The greatest movie ever!

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

malcolmgsw So says the doctor when he is asked whether to call in a psychiatrist.This film seems to be in two parts.The first where Ayres looses and tries to recover his memory.The second where he recovers his homicidal spouse.Christine was a real blonde bombshell.Yet she only appeared in a handball of films.Maybe the competition from Diana Does was too stiff.However she goes full out as the murderous wife.Having been disappointed by the reappearance of husband Ayres,she has to go to the trouble of bumping him off again.There is a lot of plot for so short a film so,as a result,there are a lot of holes in the plot and far too many coincidences and contrivance.However it is all quite entertaining.

bnwfilmbuff This had the makings of being an excellent movie. However, it needed more meat on the bones. Christine Norden and Robert Ayers give terrific performances in this noirish thriller. Unfortunately, at just over 52 minutes there just isn't enough time to allow the story to fully develop. Therefore, it ends up playing more like a TV drama than a full length film. The abrupt ending is less than satisfying. In spite of the time drawback, I'd still recommend this.

kidboots .....and "a psychiatrist!! - smile when you call me that"!! Obviously the doctor is old school - he has been called in by the Kemps when they find a man collapsed on their carpet and who is suffering from amnesia after being assaulted by a man he stopped to aid in what he thought was a hit and run accident.Exclusive Pictures (even though connected with Hammer) were anything but. Even though they didn't have their own studio and moved from premises to premises (Oakley Court, Dial Close) they managed to turn out some pretty nifty crime movies. Before Exclusive broke with Hammer they made "Black Widow" based on the B.B.C. serial "Return From Darkness" and because of the distribution deal Exclusive had with United Artists there was the obligatory American star in Robert Ayres.At just over 50 minutes there were so many loose ends and unanswered questions - the stranger is very knowledgeable around horses so Kemp assumes he may have had a farm but there isn't enough time to pursue that line. He does find a cinema stub in his coat pocket - from Epping so he retraces his steps and once he finds himself on the treed way to his house his memory just as mysteriously returns!!Christine Norden, at one time being groomed for stardom until Diana Dors came on the scene, plays his scheming wife Christine. He is Mark Sherwin and it doesn't take him long to realise that his "turning up" is not exactly a time of rejoicing for his wife. She has been having an affair with his best friend and Mark, turning up the day of his own funeral, turns their plans upside down. Mark finally realises things are serious when a) his gun goes missing from it's usual place, b) the phone wire has been cut and c) he is asked to go down to the cellar just once too often!!! But like a good last minute rescue, Sheila Kemp has followed him to Epping and she is just in time for a nick of time ending!!Biggest star of the movie would have to be John Longdon, (he plays Kemp) who in the early 1930s appeared in a few prestigious Hitchcock productions ie "Blackmail", "The Skin Game"(1931) as well as the later "Young and Innocent" (1937).

gordonl56 BLACK WIDOW 1951Robert Ayres is driving down a country lane when he comes across someone laying in the middle of the road. Thinking it is someone who has been hit by a car he stops to see if he can help. What he gets for his efforts is a vicious belt to the head from a lead cosh. He is then relieved of his wallet and his car.Several minutes later having somewhat recovered, he staggers to a nearby farmhouse and collapses. He is found and a doctor is called. Meanwhile the car thief has made it about 30 miles before he takes a corner a tad fast and goes for an unwanted flight off a cliff. Needless to say that the car explodes taking care of the thief. Back at the farmhouse Ayres has regained consciousness.One slight problem though. He has no idea who he is or how he got to the farmhouse. The local doctor says to get some rest and the police say there are no reported missing persons. The farm owner and his daughter agree to house Ayres while he recovers. Several weeks go by and Ayres still has no memory of who he his. A search of his overcoat turns up a theatre ticket from a town 60 miles away.Ayres grabs a train and heads for the town. Once there he recognizes a large house. He enters and finds a coffin covered with flowers in the front room. A blonde, Christine Norden, enters and upon seeing Ayres screams and then faints. Ayres memory all drops back into place! Norden is his wife and this is his house. It seems Norden thought Ayres had been killed in the car crash that killed the car thief.All is now well. Or is it? It seems Norden has been stepping out with another man and has plans of her own for the estate. She asks if anyone had seen him come home. "No", answers Ayres. "Go have a sleep while I make some calls. We'll have a welcome home party tonight" she says. While Ayres is upstairs, Norden makes a call to her lover to arrange Ayres upcoming demise. Of course her plan comes unraveled and Norden and her lover get their just deserts.This is a brisk moving 60 min thriller from the U.K. Directed by Vernon Sewell who did several very good little noir like, STRONGROOM, MAN IN THE BACK SEAT and UNEASY TERMS. Christine Norden did quite a few blonde bimbo roles before Diana Dors showed up on the scene.
