Operation is a GO!By Boxer Dog Lover in Vermont...Matt Helm is sent to Mexico to to rescue Sarah, a fellow US agent. Sarah is working in a bar called The Chihuahua. She gets knifed and mutters something to her sister, Gail, as she is dying.Matt meets up with Gail shortly afterwards and tries to find out what Sarah told her. Gail is best described as a real character!Supposedly, there will be an underground test at a facility which must be stopped. Gail and Matt take off in a snowstorm to stop this test. Gail turns out to be a double crosser which adds to the plot.There is some great humor in this book. I would describe it as off the wall so it really fit the characters.Any chance that Matt and Gail will end up together?Highly recommended.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful.

  • Hyperobjectifijaculation
    Hyperobjectifijaculation The Silencers (1966), Directed by Phil Karlson By Fearless Young Orphan Last time we discussed the ultimate cold war spy film, The Spy Who Came in from the Cold, typically listed among the greatest spy films made to date. Let’s not let quality go to our heads. This time around, we’re going to dive headfirst into the polar opposite, which is such an overbearing farce that I’m not sure it should be mentioned by title in the same paragraph, for fear of offending the movie gods. Matt Helm is actually the secret agent from a series of espionage novels by Donald Hamilton. Mr. Hamilton’s books were of a serious nature, so who knows what he thought when the rights were purchased and the franchise turned into a sleazy sex-romp. I hope he was just pleased with the money; he did, after all, go on to write a couple dozen more books in the series. Released almost simultaneously with Our Man Flint in 1966, The Silencers represents the ugly extreme of James Bond spoofing. Three more films follow in the series: Murderer’s Row, The Ambushers, and The Wrecking Crew. I understand that this is the “best” of the four, but that’s sort of like saying “That was the best case of stomach flu I’ve ever suffered.” The Silencers is not clever enough to even be called a spoof in my opinion; I’d consider it closer to being a spy nerd’s dirty dream. Basically it takes any concept of actual secret agents and skips it for the sake of showing as many gorgeous women as it possibly can, in various states of undress.

  • The Wrecking Crew’
    © Copyright 2012 Walt Missingham ‘THE WRECKING CREW’ The Forgotten Bruce Lee Movie Written by Walt Missingham The Wrecking Crew, released in 1969 and starring Dean Martin, Elke Sommer, Nancy Kwan and Sharon Tate is the fourth and final film in a series of American comedy-spy-fi theatrical releases featuring Martin as secret agent Matt Helm. As with the previous three Helm spy movies (The Silencers, Murderers' Row, and The Ambushers), it is based only loosely upon Donald Hamilton's 1960 novel of the same title and takes great liberties with the plot and characters, being developed as a spoof of the James Bond films. The Wrecking Crew was the second Helm novel published and the earliest of the books to be adapted. This was the last film of Tate's to be released before her murder at the hands of Charles Manson's followers on August 9, 1969. © Copyright 2012 Walt Missingham Bruce Lee coaching Nancy Kwan and Sharon Tate Not known by many is that the film featured a virtual who’s who of American martial arts royalty with Chuck Norris, Joe Lewis, Ed Parker and Bruce Lee all appearing in the film. Bruce Lee was engaged as the martial arts choreographer for the film and insisted on bringing in as many top martial arts exponents as he could. © Copyright 2012 Walt Missingham Joe Lewis squares off against Dean Martin As the film progressed it became obvious to Dean Martin as well as Producer Irving Allen and Director Phil Karlson that Lee’s skills and the martial arts in general should and would be an integral part of the next Mat Helm movie ‘The Ravagers’ Chuck Norris with Elke Summers and Dean Martin © Copyright 2012 Walt Missingham Bruce Lee was choreographer for the fight scenes but also doubled for Dean Martin in all the fights.

IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE READER USE 2-PAGE VIEW (BOOK FORMAT WITH SCROLLING ENABLED) IN ACROBAT READER OR BROWSER. “EVEN’ING IT OUT – A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON THE LAST TWO YEARS OF “THE TWILIGHT ZONE” Television Series (minus ‘THE’)” A Study in Three Parts by Andrew Ramage © 2019, The Twilight Zone Museum. All rights reserved. Preface With some hesitation at CBS, Cayuga Productions continued Twilight Zone for what would be its last season, with a thirty-six episode pipeline – a larger count than had been seen since its first year. Producer Bert Granet, who began producing in the previous season, was soon replaced by William Froug as he moved on to other projects. The fifth season has always been considered the weakest and, as one reviewer stated, “undisputably the worst.” Harsh criticism. The lopsidedness of Seasons 4 and 5 – with a smattering of episodes that egregiously deviated from the TZ mold, made for a series much-changed from the one everyone had come to know. A possible reason for this was an abundance of rather disdainful or at least less-likeable characters. Most were simply too hard to warm up to, or at the very least, identify with. But it wasn’t just TZ that was changing. Television was no longer as new a medium. “It was a period of great ferment,” said George Clayton Johnson. By 1963, the idyllic world of the 1950s was disappearing by the day. More grittily realistic and reality-based TV shows were imminent, as per the viewing audience’s demand and it was only a matter of time before the curtain came down on the kinds of shows everyone grew to love in the 50s.

  • Das Es Sich Bei Die Another Day Um Einen James Bond-Film Handelt, Erkennt Man Schon Am Titel
    Ein Bond ist nicht genug Zum 20. mal kehrte James Bond mit Die Another Day im November in die Kinos zurück. Seinen ersten Leinwand-Auftritt hatte der britische Nobelagent vor 40 Jahren. Anlass genug, um auf die Ursprünge des erfolgreichsten Filmfranchises der Kinogeschichte zurückzublicken. ROBERT BLANCHET Dass es sich bei Die Another Day um den neuesten James-Bond-Film handelt, erkennt man schon am Titel: Leben und Tod, Luxus, Eros und Unendlichkeit - mindestens eines dieser Elemente kommt in fast allen Bondfilmtiteln vor. Gut gewählt ist er aber auch deshalb, weil er perfekt zum Jubiläum passt, das das älteste Filmfranchise des Gegenwartskinos vor kurzem feierte: Seit 40 Jahren steht 007 im Geheimdienst Ihrer Majestät; 50 Jahre wenn man die Bücher mit dazurechnet – und tatsächlich ist die Zeit für den Agenten mit der Lizenz zum Töten wohl noch lange nicht gekommen. Seit Pierce Brosnan 1995 die Walther PPK von Timothy Dalton übernommen hat, spielen Bondsequels wieder fast doppelt so viel ein wie in den für das Spion-Genre eher mageren Achtzigerjahren. Mit Blockbusterserien wie Mission: Impossible (Paramount), XXX (Columbia TriStar), und Austin Powers (Warner Bros./New Line) hat mittlerweile fast jedes der Hollywoodstudios sein eigenes Bondderivat im Programm. Und wenn Madonna nach Austin Powers dieses Jahr endlich auch den echten Bond mit einem Titelsong beehrt, ist dies nur konsequent, wenn man bedenkt, wie viel die zeitgenössische Popkultur dem Retrochic der 20 offiziellen Bondfilme und ihren Soundtracks schuldet. Begonnen hat alles 1952 in Goldeneye, dem jamaikanischen Winterrefugium von Ian Flemming. Umgeben von Palmen, illustren Gästen und dem zunehmend frostigeren politischen Klima des Kalten Krieges schuf der Journalist und Bonvivant hier eine Romanfigur, die wohl vieles von dem verkörperte, was er sich für sein eigenes Leben erträumte.

Flying Saucers, Secret Agents, Flying LessonsBy Dave WildeMatt Helm is an agent for a super-secret agency that operates in the shadows and does the tough work no one wants to admit needs doing. Not only does he have a license to kill, but he knows intimately that feelings and emotions have no place in this business and if you are too cautious and too moralistic that agent you only wounded might come back up firing at you. This one involves UFOs and strange ray guns and other mysterious sightings. It involves another espionage agency out to do Helm wrong. It involves his early nemesis the gorgeous Nayda. It takes the reader deep into Mexico and into the Sea of Cortez. Gritty, fast paced, unsentimental, and simply a damn good read.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.
