Blu-ray Review – Storm Fear

1955's "Storm Fear" is introduced as a tale of isolation, but soon surveys unusual intimacies. Scripted by Horton Foote (adapting a book by Clinton Seeley) and directed by Cornel Wilde, the feature holds attention through tremendous characterization, working through the paranoia and neuroses of a tattered family as they're forced to survive together in a remote location. It's a classic setting for domestic hostilities, but the production manages to unearth intriguing areas of discomfort, allowing "Storm Fear" to overcome its slightly hammy execution and land a few emotional punches.
