Experience Orson Welles' timeless masterpiece, Touch of Evil, complete and uncut with restored footage for the first time ever! This exceptional film noir portrait of corruption and morally-compromised obsessions stars Welles as Hank Quinlan, a crooked police chief who frames a Mexican youth as part of an intricate criminal plot. Charlton Heston plays an honorable Mexican narcotics investigator who clashes with the bigoted Quinlan after probing into his dark past. A memorable supporting cast including Janet Leigh as Heston's inquisitive wife, Akim Tamiroff as a seedy underworld leader, Zsa Zsa Gabor and Marlene Dietrich as an enigmatic gypsy complete this fascinating drama engulfed in haunting cinematography and a magnificently eerie score by Henry Mancini.

Everything about this is near immaculate - the cinematography is unbelievably distinctive and dynamic, the story gripping with a plethora of intensely memorable moments, and Wells' creative choices shine through the censorship of the time. A must watch for any cinephile.

This is a mesmerizing movie, a brilliant work that's very poorly served by a cheesy trailer. Perhaps Welles' greatest film.

Personally I've never been a big fan of Orson Welles because I watched his movie Citizen Kane(which is terrible.) The story is just all over the place and the scenes that are supposed to be suspenseful are cheesy!
