Fraudster perpetrates deadly scam. Partner holds incriminating evidence. Amidst death threats, fraudster fakes own murder to escape consequences. Objective plot outline spanning fraud, blackmail, and faked death without exposition.

Locker 69 is an enjoyable but idiotic B feature that was made in 20 days for very little money. While the film is running, it holds the audience&#39;s attention with numerous plot developments and mysterious characters. When the film is over, the absurdity of the story is glaringly obvious. A shady business man has perpetrated a nasty fraud that has resulted in the death of large numbers of people. His business partner has kept evidence of the fraud which he keeps in locker 69 in a security vault. He has threatened the fraudster with exposure in the event of any further dishonest dealing. The fraudster suddenly receives death threats. He decides to fake his own murder in a plan both to get his hands on the evidence in locker 69 and to trick whoever is threatening him. The &quot;murder&quot; is investigated by the police, a private detective and a journalist. The narrative of Locker 69 makes no sense at all and ideally should have been &quot;re-imagined&quot; by the screenwriter. Certainly the journalist is a character the film can do without. Nevertheless the film proceeds very briskly and there is not a dull moment anywhere. Edward Underdown is very good as the fraudster and the little known Clarissa Soltz makes a strong impression in her tiny part. The photography and lighting are surprisingly good for a movie shot so quickly and the tight editing makes sure no-one in the audience will be bored.

Locker Sixty Nine

A businessman Bennett Sanders is found dead by his assistant Craig, the assistant gets clubbed and when coming to finds the body gone. A newspaper reporter Simon York, a policeman Inspector Roon and Craig himself join forces to untangle the mystery. It&#39;s a moderately paced mystery juggling several characters until the denouement where everything is explained. Not the best of the Merton Park Edgar Wallace series but not the worst. It does have a good cast but they are not stretched dramatically. Edward Underdown does best as the smooth businessman. John Carson receives an &#39;and introducing&#39; credit which is strange as he had been in films and TV for at least ten years.

A shady business man has perpetrated a fraud that has resulted in the death of a large number of people. His business partner has evidence of the fraud and threatens the fraudster with exposure in the event of any further dishonest dealing. But when the fraudster suddenly receives death threats he decides to fake his own murder in a plan both to get his hands on the evidence. So-so thriller starts out well but gets overly complicated and muddled, however there&#39;s some fine performances, especially by Eddie Byrne who plays a nosey reporter scoping out a fake murder and an insurance scam. John Carson makes his debut here.
