I allowed you this one mistake because I wanted to teach you a lesson.
I'm really going to miss Turner Classic Movies. Watched 1962's Experiment in Terror today, which was produced and directed by Blake Edwards at a time in his career when he was definitely on a roll. He had just made Breakfast at Tiffany's and was about to make Days of Wine and Roses and The Pink Panther. This film was something else entirely, though.
A taut psychological thriller, Experiment in Terror stars Lee Remick as a bank teller targeted by an asthmatic criminal who forces her to rob her own bank, with Glenn Ford as the rock-solid FBI agent who comes to her aid and Stefanie Powers as her 16-year-old sister, who has her own run-in with the psycho. And Ross Martin deserves to be singled out (as he is in the closing credit) for his creepy portrayal as the villain, who manages to inspire fear simply by breathing a certain way.
The film was written by Gordon Gordon and Mildred Gordon (who billed themselves "The Gordons" and also wrote That Darn Cat), and I could swear I've heard Henry Mancini's score somewhere before. It's possible I'm just thinking of a similar-sounding cue in David Lynch's Lost Highway, though. (Speaking of Lynch, Remick's character lives on a dead end street in the Twin Peaks section of San Francisco. Probably a coincidence...)
