Strangler of the Swamp is a 1946 horror film directed by Frank Wisbar. The movie stars Rosemary La Planche as Angela, Robert Barrat as Dave, and Blake Edwards as Jeff. Set in a remote Louisiana bayou, the film follows the story of a string of murders that have been taking place. The locals in the area believe that the murders are the work of a vengeful ghost - the ghost of a man who was wrongly accused and hanged for a crime he didn't commit.

Dave, a fisherman, has been accused of the recent murders, despite his protests of innocence. Meanwhile, his daughter, Angela, fears for her father's life, and becomes determined to prove his innocence.

As the story unfolds, we learn the truth about the murders, and the identity of the real killer. There are plenty of twists and turns along the way, and the tension builds to a thrilling climax.

One of the most striking things about the movie is the setting. The bayou is beautifully shot and has a haunting quality to it that really adds to the atmosphere. The characters are all well-drawn and interesting, and the acting is solid throughout.

Overall, Strangler of the Swamp is a classic horror movie that is well worth seeking out. Its slow-burn atmosphere and strong sense of tension make it a real nail-biter, and the mystery of the murderer keeps the audience on edge until the final reveal.
