| Summary |
Suddenly: a trio of assassins, led by a cold-blooded psychopath, hold a family and a local sheriff hostage while waiting for their target. The man with the golden arm: fresh out of prison for heroin possession, a professional card dealer struggles to become a jazz drummer while his gambling boss, neurotic wife, and villainous dope dealer all conspire against him. Fear in the night: a young man has a horrific nightmare wherein he commits a murder, but when he awakes covered with blood he is convinced it was not a dream. Detour: a world-weary musician is haplessly involved in an ambiguous death while thumbing his way to Los Angeles. Impact: a wealthy industrialist survives a murder attempt by his devious wife and her lover only to be accused of attempted murder. Half-dazed he stumbles into a moving van that takes him to idyllic Larkspur, Idaho, where newspaper stories of his "death" jog his memory. The amazing Mr. X: a mysterious spiritualist convinces a grieving young widow that he can communicate with the spirit of her late husband. |
