Review of The Bait

The Bait (1973 TV Movie)
7/10
Great Retro Camp Appeal!
9 December 2012
These old ABC-TV Movie of the Week thrillers are great to watch, if nothing more than being amazed by the vintage clothing, home decor and cars of the era. Since these films are actual time capsules, rather than the recreation of a specific period, just makes them more appealing as you know they are 100% accurate. No anachronisms here! This one, probably filmed sometime in 1972, is like going through a Sears catalog from that year. In addition, it also has some pretty good suspense for an early TV- movie. I had forgotten how beautiful and classy June Lockhart was, and Donna Mills is just a treat to the eye. I don't consider it a Police Woman ripoff at all. I give it 7 out of 10.
