Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaCurt Lowens is dubbed by Dan O'Herlihy.
- GoofsNobody in his right mind would climb snow-covered mountains improperly dressed--no overcoat, no boots, no gloves, no scarf, no ear-covering hat, etc.--yet near the climax of the film, Janssen and other cast members risk frostbite and possibly even hypothermia by wearing only basic, non-protective clothing. Presumably, for outdoor films of this type, directors prefer not to swaddle their stars, perhaps for fear of potentially making them less quickly identifiable to the viewer. Either that, or certain "outdoor" scenes are in fact filmed indoors on sound stages.
- Quotes
David Christopher: I was up half the night with the Zürich police, who insist I'm responsible for a Bobby Hayes that was stuffed into a trunk of a rented car, which they say I rented, which I didn't rent, now don't further complicate my life; what is it?

Featured review
This movie was paced so slowly that even snails would be saying "Hello, I'd like to get there sometime today!" The best part of the movie is where this chef in a restaurant goes after someone with a cleaver. After that it goes downhill from there. So yeah, there's a conspiracy to forward the cause of bad films everywhere. I had to watch the ending a couple of times because I kept nodding off. If you are suffering from insomnia, pop this movie in and start watching it. It worked so well,that I almost got fired for sleeping on the job. If you want to see a better movie starring David Janssen, go watch Moon of the Wolf. In fact, the only reason I saw this movie was because it was on a DVD with Moon of the Wolf. It was in a bargain bin at a Walgreens near where I work. The sticker price was one dollar. It was one of those DVD's that are out there that are packaged in one of those slim jewel cases, and the DVD is double sided (a movie on both sides). Although I was surprised to see that Ray Milland starred in this movie. If you want to see a Ray Milland movie that's better, go watch Frogs. It has him and Sam Elliot.
