Apparently, this was made in under one week - and though that is to be commended, it does not make this film any better! It's got a sort of Alastair Maclean style premiss: a yacht is found abandoned, save for a corpse, by a fishing boat. They report it all and lay claim to salvage rights. Only snag is - the boat has a secret cargo that Peter Forster ("Monet") will stop at nothing to acquire, so when the authorities use them as bait to ensnare the real murderer/smuggler it all… Read more
gets a bit risky. Sadly, though, there is absolutely no suspense whatsoever; the acting - admittedly, this is the ultimate B-cast - is mediocre at best, and the repetitive score all too often has to substitute for the weak and feeble dialogue. To be fair to the fisher-folks "Marty" (Chris Warfield) and "June" (Sally Fraser), they do look as if they enjoyed making this film, especially as the ending livens things up a bit, but that emotion does not really transcend to the viewer for the rest of this film. I reckon they did well to spin this story out for 75 minutes!
