The Night Holds Terror

Gene Courtier (Jack Kelly), his wife Doris (Hildy Parks), and their two young children are terrorized by a group of escaped convicts, led by Robert Batsford (John Cassavetes), as the police close in on their suburban home. The gang, which also includes Victor Gosset (Vince Edwards) and Luther Logan (David Cross), takes the family hostage and demands a large ransom from Courtier's father, who owns a chain of stores. The situation escalates into a tense standoff, with the police tracing the gang's phone calls and eventually swarming the area, leading to a shootout and the safe rescue of Courtier and his family.
