Girls on the Loose is a 1958 American crime film noir directed by Paul Henreid and starring Mara Corday, Lita Milan, and Barbara Bostock.

Plot

Vera (Mara Corday) runs a nightclub that's really a front for her secret operation: an all-female crime ring that's been pulling off heist after heist. The gang does a major job with the help of Agnes (Abby Dalton), a new recruit and insider with access to a bank's payroll. But then the nervous Agnes threatens to squeal, so Vera has her rubbed out. And when Vera's good-girl sister, Helen (Barbara Bostock), starts dating suspicious policeman Bill (Mark Richman), Vera gets cutthroat.

Reception Writing for Turner Classic Movies, critic Nathaniel Thompson described the film as a "low-budget oddity" that is "a proud member [of] the girl gang genre," but which is "elevated by a strong, provocative lead bad girl in the form of Corday."
