Review of Terror on Alcatraz (1986) by Michael W — 21 Feb 2013
Frank Morris (same guy Eastwood played in Escape From Alcatraz), the only man to escape from Alcatraz and presumed dead, returns to the prison decades later to find a map in an inmate's cell to a hidden safety deposit box key.
All goes according to plan until a young Alcatraz know-it-all tourist recognizes him. Really liked the premise but needed better execution in places - see the pointless restaurant scene near the end. Great closing scene though, that old bank teller can finally retire.
