TEENAGE CRIME WAVE 1957 (TUBI)

Good little juvnile deliquency film directed by Fred Sears.

Tommy Cook stars as a crazed killer named Mike Denton. He ad his girlfriend Terry Marsh (Molly McCart) attempt to steal money from a man Molly has enticed out of a bar. This ends in disaster as both of them as well as an innocent young woman named Jane Koberly (Sue England) are arrested by the police.

Terry and Jane are sent to a women's prison, but on the way Mike interfers, killing a policeman and injuring the matron as he gets the young women into a car and they head for the countryside.

They come upon a small farm and proceed to terrorize everyone there while Mike and Terry plot their escape.

I see this film has a lot of bad reviews, but I found it to be a very well made story with Cook going over the top with his portrayal of the insane Mike.

The film is very fast paced and should please fans of the genre. The rest of the cast includes Frank Griffin, James Bell, Robert Bice and John Harvey.

Check it out, you might enjoy it.
