A haunting American classic, The Night of the Hunter follows the sinister journey of Reverend Harry Powell, a fanatical preacher and serial killer who marries a gullible widow to uncover a hidden fortune.

With its striking, dreamlike cinematography and unforgettable performance by Robert Mitchum as the menacing Powell, The Night of the Hunter is a masterpiece of suspense and Southern Gothic atmosphere - a must-see on the big screen for lovers of classic cinema.
