Tagline: The wedding night, the anticipation, the kiss, the knife, BUT ABOVE ALL... THE SUSPENSE!
Plot: In this eerie meditation on good and evil, a schizophrenic preacher--possibly the devil himself--relentlessly hunts two small children across the Depression-era Bible Belt to get at their dead father's stolen fortune. In Mitchum's career-defining role as Preacher Harry Powell, he wears unforgettable tattoos of two four-letter words on his fingers: LOVE and HATE. Hauntingly directed by Laughton, THE NIGHT OF THE HUNTER is his only credited directorial effort.
