mcpapa Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 "The Secret of the Purple Reef". Richard Chamberlain's first movie, I think. Terrible production values; seemed like a third of the movie was spent on a couple of boats on open water. Lots of scenes with guys walking to and from the camera; a sad little gunfight at the end. Peter Falk was the bad guy, the leading lady (never heard of her; she died and good riddance) was boring. The black guy died (natch). At my age, I don't have all that much time left. Why does a person waste it on this tripe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Schue Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 You absolutely cannot! That's one area where my OCD doesn't kick in. I don't have to know how it ends, because the flick stinks and I'm not wasting my time watching a terrible movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
