Terrible episode of The Saint in which Simon takes an early viewpoint that there might be something to voodoo. And the script supports that view. Hard to believe that this is a Peter Yates directed episode. He brought so much in his earlier efforts for the show. But here we get spooky voodoo rituals heavily laden with an eerie score. Throw-in, around the 39 minute mark, one of the most ridiculous things you've ever seen (except 5 minutes later it gets more ridiculous), and I think you'll agree with me that this is not a good episode.
Of interest is the energetic dancer at the beginning of the episode played by Boscoe Holder. He is Geoffrey Holder's brother. For those old enough--"Marvelous!"
Bottom line, I don't like seeing The Saint delving in nonsensical, supernatural, plots.
