I can't help but think this could have been so much better if only someone had taken a razor blade to the soundtrack. It's repetitive nature really annoyed me after about ten minutes. The story, though, is quite quirky and really centres around just three characters. "Claude" (Vince Edwards) is a contract killer - and an extremely efficient one - and his two minders who are supposed to liaise with their "chief" and sort out the logistics. All is going well until the latest target - a woman, a witness in an huge crime case - unsettles our otherwise meticulous and unshakable killer. Regrettably, this has been made on a shoestring with a tight turnaround, so we get little - if any - time to play any mind games with our assassin; what is it about killing a woman that troubles him? She's a relatively easy mark - even if she is guarded by the police 24 hours. The end of the film, therefore, feels just a bit rushed and thought there is a clear conclusion, it could have been much better developed and complete. Still, for what it is, it takes quite an innovative approach to a standard plot line and Edwards makes the whole thing certainly worth a watch.
