    If you crave excitement don't bother with this
    Made by Hammer Films before they started their profitable horror films.At this moment time they were making quota quickest which were low on quality and entertainment.The studio they are using is so small that there isn't room to swing a cat.Although there is a very reasonable cast it can safely be said that they would all go on to far better work.Sid James has a small part and has a truly awful Italian accent.Everyone overcast as if their lives depended upon it.There may have been worse quota quickness but they would have to be truly awful to compete with the total lack of quality displayed by this film.
