The Usual Poverty Row Product.......2003-11-23

Raplh Byrd is a purser aboard a trans-Atlantic clipper. He foils a gang of robbers who hijack the plane, tie up the crew and steal the money on board. About half of the movie is all talk (and a couple of fist fights) before they even get on the airship. I stuck with it until the end but it was all a pretty ordinary affair. From PRC so I suppose you know what you're in for. The "Alpha" dvd is obviously mastered from VHS video source material which in turn looks like it was recorded from an old 16mm print . The picture is not very sharp and there are a few splices that make a couple of parts of the film jump around like a Benny Hill sketch. Poor quality all round... even for the cheap price.

Two showgirls decide to leave South America and head back to America. They sweet talk the purser of a clipper ship into giving them berths, but given his infatuation for one of the pair, the process proved fairly simple. In the course of the voyage, a band of thieves attempts to take over the ship and make off with its cash cargo. The heroic purser, who wishes to protect the girls, has other ideas and weighs in to save the day.
