1931 · 1h 11m · Thriller, Drama

Skip this one—while the premise of a woman cornered by criminals on a lawless island has potential, this 1931 pre-Code melodrama feels more dated than thrilling, and without any critical consensus to vouch for it, you're better off spending your evening on a thriller that's actually aged well.

Plot

To avoid the rigors of the law, Gilda flees New Orleans and hides on a Caribbean island where the worst criminals can ask for asylum. Besieged by the scum of the earth, Gilda will soon find out that she has found refuge in hell.

Director: William A. Wellman
