@WSenator1 You're right. Conrad had a good career. He helped to bring us the mighty Bullwinkle. I agree with you on the importance of that! The Moose & Squirrel brightened up many a day for me, as I watched them after getting home from school. R. I. P. , William Conrad.

In today's world the customer would have sued the poor owner, bright boy.

Punks like these use fear and intimidation to get what they want. Bright boy down counter? Well I've known guys in the Marine Corps with those same innocent ordinary looks who were well trained killers and far worse than these two thugs!

Heavens to Murgatroid! THANKS so much for posting all of this 40's noir classic. A top notch flick in every dept: cast, script, etc. You've MADE my day & my week! CHEERS, mate! :-)

i think the opening scene with the killers demanding food is what inspired a similar scene in "History of Violence" when the guy demanded coffee.

@jmarcguy - BTW, "He Walked by Night" featured a young actor named Jack Webb in a minor role. He used this film as inspiration for the later classic, "Dragnet."

@CraigSFiney I'd put The Third Man and Double Indemnity above this, but The Killers is definitely one of the great ones.
