9/10
Cry panic

A man accidentally runs over and kills a pedestrian outside a small town. He begins to suspect that the locals, including the sheriff, are keeping secrets about the victim.

A compelling thriller that is like Bad Day at Black Rock meets A Lady Vanishes, Cry Panic boasts a strong performance by John Forsythe, who goes to some lengths to prove that he had hit someone. He calls the police to do the right thing and report the accident, however the body has vanished. It's obvious the town members are hiding something. It can be convulated at times, but it's a taut and engaging enough to pull you in, though the reasoning behind the town folks' cover-up isn't too clear, well not after much analysis.
