Having done time for the manslaughter of his wife's lover, ex-Chicago cop Jim Slade (Burt Lancaster, who co-directed) was lucky to have landed a night security job at a small-town college. When a co-ed turns up murdered-and the administration's all too quick to pin it on a creepy janitor-a suspicious Slade starts his own prying, and some politically connected suspects seek to see him clock out for good. Long-sought thriller co-stars Susan Clark, Cameron Mitchell, Joan Lorring, Morgan Woodward. 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; theatrical trailer.
