Description:
Dean Martin stars as the original swinger agent, Matt Helm, in this four-disc set including: THE SILENCERS, MURDERERS ROW, THE WRECKING CREW, and THE AMBUSHERS.
THE SILENCERS: The first of the series of Matt Helm films, the big cheese of Big O, an organization that wants to sabotage the American atomic missile system. It's up to secret agent Helm to save the day.
MURDERER'S ROW: The handsome top agent Matt dies a tragic death in his bathtub - the women mourn about the loss. However it's just faked for his latest top-secret mission: He shall find Dr. Solaris, inventor of the Helium laser beam, powerful enough to destroy a whole continent. It seems Dr. Solaris has been kidnapped by a criminal organization. The trace leads to the Cote D'Azur.
THE AMBUSHERS: A government space saucer is hijacked mid-flight by a powerful laser beam under the control of Jose Ortega, who then proceeds to rape the female pilot, Sheila Sommars. ICE sends agent Matt Helm to Acapulco with Sheila to recover the saucer, under the guise of Matt taking fashion photographs of beautiful models. Matt is temporarily sidetracked, falling prey to the seductive charms of enemy agent Franceca Madeiros.
THE WRECKING CREW: The count has stolen enough gold to cause a financial crisis in the world markets so I.C.E. sends in ace spy Matt Helm to stop him. As Matt works alone, the British send in Freya to aid Matt, but it seems that Freya causes more problems than she solves.

I watched this when I was young and really missed seeing and hearing Dean.. A comedy, musical spoof of James Bond
Rating: - Classic
What is cooler than 60's spys, hot women and Dean Martin. Not much. Nostalgia and a little camp to celebrate the 60's. Video quality is excellent.
Rating: - Dean Martin Phones It In As Only He Can
Dean Martin rarely seems to be more than half awake for these vintage 1960s-era spy spoofs, but that's a key part of their charm. His insouciant Matt Helm plays perfectly against the deliberately ludicrous plots. James Gregory, who plays it arrow straight as Matt Helm's boss, makes you believe something is actually going on, and his unending efforts to persuade Martin's Helm that that something needs to be dealt with makes for delightful comic tension. Call on the likes of Victor Buono and Karl Malden ... Read More

Anyone who is a Dean MArtin fan and a lover of the film style spoofs of the 60's and 70's will love this collection. Martin at his best.
Rating: - Awesome.
If you've a love for camp, if you've a love of sixties cool, if you've a love of pretty women like Ann-Margret and Elke Sommers, then you'll love these movies. Dean Martin was great in these movies. It's too bad he didn't start doing these movies earlier in his career.
