| Notes: | Kyle Cameron is a bank teller, engaged to the pretty Jo Anne. But when Emily Rudolph is hired, everything changes. She bewitches him and he become obsessed. But she makes it very clear that he can't have her unless he can keep her living the lifestyle she wants. Kyle comes up with a plan to embezzle money from the bank, and the two take off to Mexico. They meet up with a local hoodlum names Flores who promises to take them to safety for a huge chunk of their money. The hoodlum soon steals Emily away from Kyle and treats her violently. Kyle, meanwhile, falls for Adela, his Mexican maid. She tells him that he's going to be killed, so he attacks Flores. The hoodlum gets the upper hand, but Emily kills him. He and Emily take off with the money, but she drowns. He is arrested and put in jail but not before Adela promises to wait for him. |
