    Where to Watch

In Nazi territory with an undercover agent (Larry Parks). John Carradine, Osa Massen, Jeanne Bates. Pavlec: Ivan Triesault. King: Jonathan Hale. Nicholas: Trevor Bardette. Directed by Lew Landers.

WW II espionage film set in an unnamed Eastern European country that has been taken over by ruthless Nazis. Carradine plays the evil German commander who sees the overthrow of the country's King, Hale. A nationalist guerrilla movement springs up to fight the invaders, and American agent Parks is parachuted in to rescue the king and spirit him out of the country so that he may broadcast the truth about the Huns to his people and they will continue to fight. Good performances by a competent cast of character actors make this worth a look.
