Hell's Horizon (1955)

Columbia Pictures
Directed by Tom Gries
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Sony Movie Channel)

A grounded and bored bomber crew fight among themselves over a woman, drink themselves to death over a letter from home or find other ways to kill time. When they are finally sent on a bombing mission to Korea, their old habits come back to haunt them. The combination of ridiculous melodrama and stock footage for the combat scenes sinks it. Chet Baker (and his trumpet) is wasted as one of the crew members.
