Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Released in the U.S. by Lippert Studios, I'll Get You was filmed in Britain as Escape Route. George Raft stars as Steve Rossi, an FBI man, sent to London on the trail of an international kidnapping ring. The villains specialize in abducting nuclear scientists, then smuggling them behind the Iron Curtain. Rossi's British contact is military intelligence agent Joan Miller (Sally Gray). Several false leads and red herrings later, the two agents close in on the kidnappers on the docks of the Thames. But the terrorists aren't about to give up peaceably, a fact that leads to an explosive finale.
