Routine
4 March 2018 | by gnok2002 – See all my reviews

I am inserting reviews for films I've seen that lack one... My brief note on this when I saw it in 1986 was... ''Extreemly routine E.Wallace quickie with a blackmail plot that could be written on the back of a bus ticket- rare leading role for M.Gough.'' As with most of the Edgar Wallace series of the early 60's this title has 2 entries on IMDB, originally listed as part of a tv series, as these films were first screened in the USA, and under which there is a better review than mine! and then later this one where it's entered as a film. 1/10 looks a harsh rating, I think I would up-rate this if I saw it again.
