Starring Richard Basehart (Time Limit), Scott Brady (Undertow) and Jack Webb (Appointment with Danger), this film noir classic was the inspiration not only for TV’s Dragnet (also with Webb) but for many other subsequent “ripped-from-the-headlines” crime dramas. Taken from actual case files, He Walked by Night is the suspenseful, action-packed tale of a manhunt for the most cunning criminal in the history of the LAPD. With a combination of ingenuity, state-of-the-art technology, sweat and sheer determination, the police painstakingly track down a brilliant, elusive thief and cop-killer (chillingly played by Basehart in only his third film) who seems to have the ability to vanish into thin air. But can they catch him before he murders again? This gritty, groundbreaking police procedural features direction by Alfred L. Werker (Shock) and an uncredited Anthony Mann (T-Men) with stunning cinematography by John Alton (Raw Deal). Special Features: • Brand New HD Master – From a 16bit 4K Scan of the 35mm Fine Grain • NEW Audio Commentary by Film Historian Imogen Sara Smith • Audio Commentary by Author/Film Historian Alan K. Rode and Writer/Film Historian Julie Kirgo • Optional English Subtitles

From the farthest reaches of space it came…is it friend or foe? After a ship from a distant world lands on the moors of Scotland, intrepid reporter John Lawrence (Robert Clarke, The Hideous Sun Demon) and the brilliant Professor Elliot (Raymond Bond) set out to investigate. Their journey brings them face to face with the ship's pilot—an alien from a dying planet that pleads for their aid. But Elliot's unscrupulous colleague Dr. Mears (William Schallert, The Patty Duke Show) has other plans entirely for the interplanetary visitor—plans that could decide the fate of two worlds. Also starring David Ormont and Margaret Field, The Man From Planet X is pure 50's drive-in goodness, straight from B-movie master Edgar G. Ulmer (The Black Cat, Detour).
