A nicely photographed film with great special effects is ruined by a trashy plot. Though I have to admit I can see why solid sheriff's deputy David Janssen might well have strayed with what young Joyce Taylor was offering.
Two punks and their junior moll do a bank robbery and are caught by Janssen. But the punks played by Frank Gorshin and James Johnson overpower him and hold him hostage. But they've fled into a forest and these city kids aren't equipped for forest survival. They need Janssen.
Ring Of Fire has some nice scenic photography in Oregon as Janssen and his three go through the woods. The forest fire is also well staged.
But having Janssen and Taylor really fall for each other, too too much.
