One of Vic Morrow's best., 19 March 2001
10/10
Author: Janice Payne (MPayne2978@aol.com) from Los Angeles, California

Although this was a made for television movie it was a great vehicle to show off Vic's amazing talent. He (Phil) and Claude Aiken's (Ernie) play wildcatter's drilling for oil down in Brazil. Being down on their luck, they sign on as explosive experts with a rather wealthy `fugitive of the USA' named Mr. Twitchell, played by Edmond O'Brien. They are to help extract diamonds that were found in a river bed deep in the Brazilian wilderness. Deception from a beautiful guide Louise Sorrell and tense moments in hauling nitro-glycerin over treacherous Brazilian back roads make for an interesting adventure of what the real reason is for using their expertise.
