The Fearmakers is a 1958 American film noir crime film directed by Jacques Tourneur and starring Dana Andrews.

The film centers on seemingly nonpartisan political messages that are shaped by a public-relations firm secretly controlled by communists determined to undermine the American government.

[2][3] Korean War veteran Alan Eaton, who suffered through brainwashing as a P.O.W., returns home and resumes his job at a public-relation and opinion-research firm in Washington, D.C. His partner has been killed mysteriously in an accident, and he discovers that his company has been taken over by communist infiltrators intent on fixing public opinion polls and promoting communist organizations.

To stop them, Eaton cooperates with a Senate investigation.
