Anecdotes

The Violent Enemy is a 1969 film directed by Don Sharp and starring Tom Bell, Susan Hampshire, Ed Begley, and Noel Purcell. It was written by Edmund Ward based on the 1966 novel A Candle for the Dead by Hugh Marlow.

Production

Don Sharp had previously worked with the producers on Taste of Excitement (which would be released after this film). He says the original title of the film was Candle for the Dead. The title was changed to Came the Hero when filming began in Waterford in October 1968 and was finished by December. Sharp says it had a "nice cast" with Begley being "marvellous... it was a very good movie to make. I loved filming in Ireland. Tom Bell was marvellous".
