I had the pleasure of sitting through this the first time it was ever on tv.

1970 or 71.

Movies of the week were new then.

They were starting to provide nightime soap opera type subjects.

No reality ,but nobody watching them knew it.

Anyone who understood subjects like this one would have left the room like my older brother did.

I did not.

I stayed. Hey,I was a child.

But it was permanently imbedded in my mind.

Watching this movie will have only one effect on you.

You will not forget it!

Even if you want to,you will not.

Why?

There are players in this that actually COULD act.

But none of them do it in any way that can make you respect them as seriose in this.

It would have to have embarassed all of them.

But each of them are given at least one imbesillic scene to harm them being looked at the same again,especially David Carradine.

Go for it.

Enjoy it.

Even if you hate it,and you should,make time after a hard work day to lighten up laughing at one of the worst movies ever made.

But that is what makes it so good that it gets full stars.

And when you finish,do not be suprised if you yell out"whazzamatter witt you!" I could have made a spoiler but I cannot see how.

Do not leave it untill the end and you will understand.

I bought it for ten bucks but it is all over the place now free.

Then,look up the main players to see how good they were.

The music is the same.

Awfull.

Out of all of the episodes of Columbo,this was the only one I had never seen.

I avoided it.

The entire subject revolted me and I assumed it was as a couple of other later episodes where the show had become far from what it had been in the first four seasons.

It was brilliant as was the character.

But times had changed.

The subjects and acting had gone out of it a bit.

Not so in this one.

I was wrong.

After seeing it through,I can say the way it looks is not as it is.

Peter did a fine performance and it is worth your time.

It could have been done in the early years of the show.
