The plot is about a shadowy group called the Crusaders, which has been organizing itself into a power center.
Its poster shows a handsome Aryan lad against the waving American flag.
Their slogan, "Join The Crusaders -- Fight for America!".
The implication is clear...the Crusaders will be against anyone who doesn't look, sound or believe the way that Aryan poster boy does.
When a columnist is killed while looking into the Crusaders, Howard Malloy finds himself appointed a special prosecutor. He also finds himself in a noxious mess that combines crime, nativism and the reactionary beliefs of some of the privileged few.

You can play the amusing Hollywood game of Spot the Star Cameo.
In unbilled bits that last a second or two are such luminaries as Burgess Meredith, John Garfield, Marsha Hunt, Everett Sloane, Henry Fonda and Marlene Dietrich.
