Cage of Evil

user8978976398452Nov 16, 2022

I have never been deceived by an Eddie Cahn film, because I already know what I deal with one hour before viewing it, that's as simple as this. I watch it as a lousy grade b picture, not as a Marty Scorcese or Quentin Tarantino's movie. So, with this method, expecting the worse, the only thing that I risk is being positively surprised. See what I mean? I don't care about the holes in the story, the laughable situations, I don't care, but maybe I should? Anyway, this rogue cop show is not Dick Quine's PUSHOVER, starring Fred McMurray, nor Howard Koch's SHIELD FOR MURDER - starring Edmond O'Brien either: famous rogue cop films, among the best in the film noir history. His forever best film will be for me the ALIEN DNA called IT THE TERROR FROM OUTER SPACE.

Los Angeles police detective Ron Foster is assigned to a diamond heist. He falls in love with the heister's girl friend, Patricia Blair, who helped set up the job. Never mind, she's a perfectly nice girl, and there are also the diamonds, as Foster finds himself trapped in this brightly-lit noir. It's one of almost thirty films directed by Edward L. Cahn over a three-year period, so if you're looking for a masterpiece, this ain't it. What you have is the bones of a good story, some performers who do their best with nonsense, and a behind-the-screen crew that could have managed something pretty good, were they given time and money: camera man Maury Gertsman, Grant Whytock supervising the editing. But with the studio system collapsing, people needed work, and when B-producer Robert Kent came a-calling, a man without a job could hardly say no. So everyone worked for a couple of weeks, and then went scrounging for the next dead-end job.

Ron Foster (who ??) is Detective Harper, gunning for a promotion (get it?) Harper is put on a jewel heist in Los Angeles, and the case kind of starts out like an episode of Dragnet. Keep an eye out for Ted Knight... as one of the cops! Harper tries to cozy up to the suspect's girlfriend (Pat Blair). the girlfriend cozies back, and has some dark, heavy-handed suggestions of her own. Now Harper is in deeper than ever, and he's not sure what to do. All hell breaks loose, and everyone is figuring out their own next step. It's pretty good. rated pretty low, as of today. i liked it more than some of the others. Directed by Ed Cahn.

In CAGE OF EVIL, police detective Scott Harper (Ron Foster) investigates a big diamond heist that also includes a murder. As Harper delves deeper into the case, he becomes romantically involved with Holly Taylor (Patricia Blair) the girlfriend of one of the thieves. Meanwhile, Harper is passed over for a promotion causing him to rethink his career path. He's ultimately presented with a choice that could hurl him headlong into darkness. This is a solid crime drama with a noir-ish edge. For lovers of hard-boiled detective stories...

Disgruntled cop Ron Foster, passed over for promotion one time too many, is seduced by B-girl Patricia Blair into a diamond theft scheme. And then things go downhill! Considering the general run of director Cahn's many B-pix of the 1950s and early 1960s, this one is rather above average. The look is more standard b/w TV of the late 50s than film noir, but the two leads are very good and put some life into it. There is more outdoor shooting than usual, and the ending adheres to the Production Code of the day.

Pretty good little "B" crime movie. Granted the plot was nothing new but movies are still being made with the same story. Ted Knight was a riot. It seemed like he tried to steal every scene he was in (which wasn't that many). I like the narration, it made the story seem better. I guess this film would be a good candidate for MSTK but certainly wasn't awful. Our hero/antihero? was a little stiff and his slang didn't quite jibe with his stiff suits and clean cut demeanor. It was funny watching "squares" cut loose though. Recommended time filler but not a whole lot of action. Gotta watch out for that plumber though.
