A neat little B-movie. Frisby the baker (
Geoffrey Keen) and his wife (
Jane Hylton) have a problem with rats at their bakery. They employ an alcoholic rat catcher Mr Love (
Dermot Kelly) to get rid of them. Mr Love uses some cyanide for his baits and ends up using a loaf tin to mix it. Then he goes off to have a drink... and ends up dying down a railway embankment. Unfortunately Mrs Frisby has used the poisoned tin to make a loaf...
Police Sergeant Malcolm (Gordon Jackson) begins a race against time to find out who bought the loaf and stop them from eating the cyanide laced bread...
A fast moving film with plenty of suspense. A limited film but makes the most of what it has.
