The Intruder, also known as I Hate Your Guts, Shame and The Stranger (British title), is a 1962 American drama film directed and co-produced by Roger Corman and starring William Shatner.[3] The story, adapted by Charles Beaumont from his own 1959 novel of the same title, depicts the machinations of a racist named Adam Cramer (portrayed by Shatner), who arrives in the fictitious small Southern town of Caxton in order to incite White townspeople to racial violence against Black townspeople and court-ordered school integration.
