If you loved Columbus Circle, try The Poison Rose

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by George Gallo, and they both carry the paranoid mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Columbus Circle, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Poison Rose is

Galveston. Late fall. A telephone ringing. Carson Phillips, private eye, takes a case from an ex. Quick money, or so it seems. Soon: a trail of corpses, each one knotted tighter to the last. Gallo goes for Chandler by way of toxic mid-period De Niro.
