I Wake Up Screaming / Hot Spot entstand im gleichen Jahr wie John Hustons Die Spur des Falken / Der Malteser Falke (1941) nach Dashiell Hammett. Streckenweise ist die Fotografie von Humberstones Kameramann Edward Cronjager (Das Todeshaus am Fluss, 1950) sogar näher am kommenden Zeitalter des Film-Noir-Kinos, das erst 1944 mit Dmytryks Mord, mein Liebling und Wilders Frau ohne Gewissen so ...
