Strange Illusion -- A young man suspects the his mother's suitor may have killed his father.

Strange Illusion -- ''Strange Illusion' is another stylish low-budget feature directed by Edgar G. Ulmer,' writes Carl Macek in Silver & Ward's indispensable guide 'Film Noir,' 'The most interesting aspect of the film rests in its updating of 'Hamlet,' complete with a message from beyond the grave and the faked insanity, into contemporary thriller. The asylum sequences are controlled visions of chaos and corruption, a mental hell sardonically defined by Ulmer.' A Poverty Row suspense classic as only Ulmer made 'em.
