Written by John Chard on September 15, 2019

Housewives can get awfully bored sometimes.

Too late for Tears is directed by Byron Haskin and written by Roy Huggins. It stars Lizabeth Scott, Don DeFore, Dan Duryea and Arthur Kennedy. Music is by Dale Butts and cinematography by William C. Mellor.

One night Alan and Jane Palmer (Kennedy & Scott) are driving to a party out Hollywood way, when all of a sudden someone in another car tosses a suitcase filled with cash into the back seat of their car. So begins a tale of greed, betrayal and murder...

Money is poison.

Low budget be damned, Too Late for Tears (AKA: Killer Bait) ends up... read the rest.
