JET STORM (1959)

Why do you want to kill me?

Brace for impact with this time-ticking thriller, starring Richard Attenborough as a former scientist with a bomb on an airplane. 

Passengers on a trans-Atlantic flight from London to New York discover that one of them is mentally unbalanced. Believing a fellow passenger is the hit-and-run driver who killed his child, he smuggles a bomb on board and intends to use it.

Directed by Cy Endfield (Sands of the Kalahari), don’t miss this edge-of-your-seat nail-biter, one of the earliest examples of an aviation-based ‘disaster movie’.
