Has anyone seen this action / adventure / marijuana / heroin smuggling film?

Made in South Africa by George Montgomery of all people, it deals with an American PI who inherits a farm in SA and travels to Johannesburg to claim his inheritance. He has a nasty welcome on arrival at the airport: a sniper takes a shot at him and manages to kill the poor bugger on the stairs behind Montgomery. Unperturbed, Montgomery rents a taxi, only to have both the taxi and the driver blown to hell shortly after he gets out of the car. The film also stars Tippi Hedren whose career went to the birds after this one.  :wink:

It will be released on DVD later this year and lucky me: I'm writing the liner notes.   :buggedout: :buggedout:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Hmm, might make a good double feature with "reefer madness".

Strange you should say that, Judge because the film's original ad line was "She was a good girl until she smokes R E E F E R !!!!"  :buggedout:

Cool! I'm always up for another Tippi Hedren movie!
If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

George Montgomery gets shot at so many times in this and Ms Hedren wields a powerful rifle that she isn't scared to use. The film's local rights holders will probably want to use a rifle on me when I conveniently forget to tell them that this film is actually in the public domain in the USA.  :buggedout:
