Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Killer That Stalked New York is a 1950 Film Noir thriller directed by Earl McEvoy.Sheila Bennet (Evelyn Keyes) is smuggling diamonds from Cuba to New York City on behalf of her husband, Matt Krane (Charles Korvin). Unbeknownst to either of them, Sheila also brought something else into New York: smallpox. Before long, there is an outbreak of the disease in the city. As public health officials try to contain the outbreak, Dr. Ben Wood (William Bishop) and a team of investigators look for the person who brought the disease to the city to keep them from spreading it to even more people even as the police search for the diamond smuggler, unaware that they are looking for the same person.The film was very loosely based on a real smallpox outbreak in New York City in 1947.See also Panic in the Streets, another film from the same year about a disease outbreak in a US city, this time pneumonic plague in New Orleans.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Big Bad | |
The Killer That Stalked New York / int_970c790a | comment |
Big Bad: Smallpox and the risk it poses to New York City is the main cause of conflict in the movie, though there is some conflict unrelated to it in the subplot about Patient Zero Sheila Bennet's personal life. | |

Brief Accent Imitation | |
The Killer That Stalked New York / int_be6f7ae7 | comment |
Brief Accent Imitation: Dr. Wood and his nurse briefly imitate Officer Houlihan's accent when discussing the patient he brought them. It's clear from their tone of voice that they don't agree with Houlihan's assessment that the patient needed immediate medical attention. | |

Answer Cut | |
The Killer That Stalked New York / int_fd16495f | comment |
Answer Cut: Sheila's brother Sid tells her "You look like you could kill.", and the scene dissolves to the first fatality of the smallpox outbreak—the porter at Pennsylvania Station, whom Sheila infected and thus indirectly killed. | |
