Classic trashy gritty crime flick
23 November 2005
5 Minutes to Live is a great underrated and forgotten classic's and a personal fave, not only does this film feature Johny Cash but also a young Ron Howard and Vic Tayback (remember Alice) as the crime boss. If the awkward and odd casting alone doesn't stand as an incentive to search this out, then the canned 1950's TV acting paired with J.c. (Johny Cabot?) getting off in all his bad boy glory as the sadistic hateful hit-man should draw a green flag to any lover of great sleaze. Johny Cash's dialog alone is downright awesome (obviously not an artifact from his born again period) This is pure non stop twisted crime noir camp and heaps of fun.
