"Why Must I Die?" is a movie with a great title...but ultimately it's just a bad film...mostly due to a script that seems in need of a re-write.
Terry Moore plays Lois King, a woman who wants to make her living as a lounge singer. It's tough at first, but eventually she hits it big. But when this happens, an old boyfriend from her dark past arrives and announces that she's going to help him and his new girlfriend with a caper. Her actions from here on really make no sense and she ultimately arrives on death row.
The writing is poor. The acting, at times, is brash and anything but subtle. But the film also doesn't try very hard to be good or sophisticated and is a poor B-movie with little to recommend it.
