Richard E. Cunha didn't make many movies, but he sure made some insane ones. There's She Demons with TV Sheena Irish McCalla, fanged women and Nazis taking over an island long after the war. Giant from the Unknown, featuring a monster named Vargas the Giant and effects by Universal's Jack Pierce. Missile to the Moon, Frankenstein's Daughter, Girl In Room 13...none of these movies are normal.
He teams with German director Gustav Gavrin, cowboy director Ray Nazarro and Albert Zugsmith (Sappho Darling, Violated!, The Cult) for this movie. That's because production problems - financing, location and personnel issues - caused filming to stop several times and personnel changed along the way.
What we end up with is a tale of three robbers who steal a million and end up turning on one another. Actually, it soon becomes two, with Lylle Corbett (Cameron Mitchell) killing Dolph and Darlene (Jayne Mansfield) having to deal with it.
They end up on an island where everyone wants their money and everyone is ready to kill for it. You kind of have to love a movie that offs nearly everyone in the cast, closing with Mansfield drowning herself to take the last of the money.
Mansfield called the film: "The best role of my career." She was four months pregnant with her daughter Mariska Hargitay when she made this. Her voice is dubbed in this by Carolyn De Fonseca, who would one day do Jayne's voice from beyond the grave for The Wild Wild World of Jayne Mansfield.
