Edge of Doom is a 1950 black-and-white film noir directed by Mark Robson and starring Dana Andrews, Farley Granger, and Joan Evans.

[2] The story concerns a young man, Martin Lynn (Farley Granger), who becomes emotionally untethered after his sick mother dies.

One of the main targets of his anger is the Catholic Church which, in addition to slighting him when he had requested a priest for his mother,[3] had years before refused to bury his father who had committed suicide.

Kirkman's assistant, Father Roth (Dana Andrews), suspects the young man, who finds himself accused of a separate crime, of the murder.

"[4] The New York Times wrote, "Robson's direction gives flashes of high tension to the film, for he has made effective use of street scenes and noises and has skillfully reflected the oppressive atmosphere of poverty and squalor, but his actors run more to types than to real people.
