Joan
Crawford and Clark Gable make the jungle uncomfortably hot while Peter Lorre
ratchets up the creepy in this torrid, sleazy little film about redemption. Six
hardened convicts and one woman of ill repute escape an island prison with
blood on their hands and sin in their hearts—only to wind up adrift on the
ocean. It seems almost certain that these cutthroats will finish each other off
long before they die of thirst, but one kind man just might show them the way.
