Killer a bordo

KILLER ON BOARD features an "all-star cast" on a luxury cruise, unaware that they're about to get far more than they paid for!

Stowaways have come aboard, infected with a lethal virus!

Imagine an episode of TV's LOVE BOAT, complete with soap opera situations, where the passengers are suddenly stricken with a fast-spreading disease. That's pretty much what we have here.

The cast is impressive, with Patty Duke, Jayne Seymour, Susan Howard, Claude Akins, and George Hamilton on hand to be tormented.

One big plus is how quickly the disease spreads, causing death and panic. Within minutes, the victims start piling up!

Ms. Duke and Ms. Howard's characters bicker, while George Hamilton shows off his impossible tan. William Daniels plays the same sort of terse, cranky role he usually plays, and Murray Hamilton, as the ship's doctor, reprises his wimpy Mayor role from JAWS. All, while Ms. Seymour radiates beauty as the tour director.

Pure fun, escapist fare...
