Disc 1: D.O.A. 'I want to report a murder...mine.' Edmond O'Brien stars as an accountant whose number is up when he is poisoned, and spends his last desperate hours trying to find out who 'killed' him and why!
Disc 2: Detour (1945) 'What did you do with the body?' A hitchhiker gets into the wrong car and picks up the wrong woman. 'No one who has seen it has easily forgotten it.' Roger Ebert
Disc 3: The Stranger (1946) Orson Welles stars in this tense thriller as a small-town professor who will stop at nothing to conceal his Nazi past, with Edward G. Robinson as the Nazi hunter out to expose him.
Disc 4: Scarlet Street (1945) stars Edward G. Robinson as a henpecked husband who falls under the spell of a scheming femme fatale. Barbara Stanwyck gives one of her greatest performances in The Strange Love of Martha Ivers (1946), a dark tale of small town secrets, obsession, and murder!
