Tension is a 1950 crime thriller film, considered film noir. The film was shot in Culver City and Malibu, California.
A mousy drugstore manager, Warren Quimby (Richard Basehart), is married to sexy, man-hungry Claire (Audrey Totter). She leaves him for another man, Barney (Lloyd Gough). Quimby decides to murder the man. He devises a complex plan, which involves assuming a new identity, to make it look like someone else murdered Claire's new boyfriend but can't go through with the killing. Barney is instead murdered by another man but all the evidence points to Quimby.
