Had it not been for the Production Code I, the Jury (1953) would have been the best-ever Mickey Spillane film adaptation. It's still pretty good - Peggie Castle sizzles, John Altonโ€™s cinematography is superb. See it.

I, the Jury (1953)

I, the Jury was the first movie adaptation of a Mickey Spillane novel. Itโ€™s a movie with a less than stellar reputation and it does have it...

On June 22, 1953, Invasion USA debuted in the United Kingdom. Hereโ€™s some Gerald Mohr and Peggie Castle fan art!
