The Desperate Hours (1955) WEBRip Oldies Dual-Audio

Three hardened, violent criminals have escaped from prison and are on the run: Glenn Griffin, the leader; Hal Griffin, Glenn's younger brother who has always felt controlled by Glenn and who is driven more now by his young adult urges; and big, lumbering Sam Kobish, who has the mindset of a big kid. Marion County Deputy Sheriff Jesse Bard correctly believes that for various reasons related specifically to Glenn that the three will head back to Indianapolis, Glenn's old stomping grounds, Bard and FBI Agent Carson who are leading the Indianapolis centered investigation and manhunt. Needing a place to hide out while they wait for money to be sent from Glenn's girlfriend Helen in Pittsburgh, Glenn chooses, for a very specific reason, for the three to take refuge in a specific otherwise occupied suburban Indianapolis house, that of the Hilliards: businessman Daniel, his stay-at-home wife Ellie, their young adult daughter Cindy, and their adolescent son Ralphy, who, to show that he is a big boy now will no longer kiss his father and would prefer to be referred to as Ralph. Glenn anticipates their stay at the Hilliard home will only be until the end of the night, but regardless will not hesitate to kill any of the Hilliards if they get in the way. As such, this standoff becomes largely a battle of wills between Glenn and Daniel, who will do whatever to protect his family. But the longer the three criminals stay at the house, the worse it becomes for all seven of them, especially as people in the natural course of life would wander into the Hilliard home, such as service workers, and Cindy's serious boyfriend Chuck Wright, who may have extra reason to want to come into the house as he and Cindy had some issues last they spoke, as they soon want to get married, and as Chuck believes Daniel doesn't like him and as such wants to have it out with who he hopes will be his imminent father-in-law.
