Brief Movie Synopsis:
A suburban family is held hostage
by three escaped convicts.

REVIEWS:
"Producer-Director William Wyler has turned Joseph Hayes'
'The Desperate Hours' into a crafty and crackling screen thriller. ....
In the top villain, played by Humphrey Bogart, [Wyler] has etched
a fearful symbol of brute force, impervious to pity or regard for
the rights of other men. Not since Mr. Bogart's appearance in
'The Petrified Forest' has he shown quite the smirking, squint-eyed
cunning and sub-surface ferocity he spreads upon the screen
as the kingpin of Mr. Hayes' tale."
-- Excerpt from The New York Times; October 6, 1955
