THEN THERE WERE THREE 1961 (US IMPORT)

Strange little WW2 film starring and directed by actor Alex Nicol.

The movie opens with an unseen spy being given orders by a German soldier and then we are switched to a small group of 8 men who have been separated from their units.

They are headed to a small town in Italy where a prisoner is being kept, and the Germans want to silence that particular person. The core of the story is that one by one the soldiers die mysterious deaths as they make their way to the town of San Corrado, and one of them is a German spy whose mission it is to kill the Italian prisoner.

This is a rare combination of WW2 and mystery which makes for interesting viewing, at least for me anyway. I enjoyed the hell out of this movie.

It moves along at a good clip, and it will be a surprise who the killer is. I kind of suspected, but was never really sure until it got to about the last 4 men.

The rest of the cast includes Frank Latimore, Barry Cahill, Sidney Klute, Frank Gregory, Fredrick Clark and eye candy provided by the delicious Adriana Cole and Paola Falchi.

This is an obscure movie, but seek it out.
