AKA The Physician of the Castle. One of a surprising number of early home invasion movies where the man is lured out of the house on false pretenses leaving the wife and kids defenseless. He is able to be contacted by telephone, however, and then it is a race to the rescue! This one was pretty directly copied the following year by Griffith in The Lonely Villa. For the peak of this sub-genre, check out Lois Weber's wonderful Suspense! 5 years 10 months ago
