'The Gelignite Gang' (1956) – Francis Searle/Terence Fisher.

In this tightly wired, genuinely exciting crime thriller from talented film-makers Francis Searle, and Terence Fisher a series of audaciously mounted, highly lucrative robberies have rocked the nation's Capital, sending the tittle-tatling tabloids into a fear-feeding frenzy, since these deadly efficient, wholly nefarious safe crackers remain at large, confounding the stalwart efforts of world renowned crime-busters Scotland Yard. Charismatic Pulp Fiction archetype, the burly, piston-fisted Insurance investigator Mr. Baxter (Wayne Morris) who so manfully plunges himself into this murderous vortex of vainglorious villainy all too soon finds himself a marked man, as the mercenary members of the altogether dastardly gelignite gang continue to ply their explosive trade, with nary a thought for any of the poor souls caught in the incendiary aftermath! This is a fabulously short-fused, fast-paced, safe-crackingly lean an' mean B-Thriller from true masters of the form, with a worthy cast of comfortably familiar faces, including avuncular, ubiquitous rotund thug-for-hire Eric Pohlman, with some equally nice work from popular actor Patrick Holt, and another witheringly bright and breezy, head-spinningly delicious turn from platinum B-Movie bombshell Sandra Dorne. 'The Gelignite Gang' is a British B-Movie blast from the past that still delivers some slam-bang entertainment, and it's 'safe' to say the sure-footed directors Searle & Fisher have generously infused the super-heated ingredients with some appropriately volatile ingredients!
