Eva Bartok

Space is a cold place to die! At a secret rocket base in England, Scientist Howard Duff (Brute Force, The Naked City) is accused of committing the perfect crime--murdering his adulterous wife and her Russian spy lover and disposing of their bodies by firing them into space aboard a satellite. To prove his innocence, he must go into space and retrieve the orbiter with fellow scientist, lovely Eva Bartok (The Crimson Pirate, Blood and Black Lace), who insists on accompanying him, possibly never to return! Historically the first British space adventure since 'Things to Come' in 1936. Also of note, 'Spaceways' in the first science fiction film produced by famed British film studio, Hammer Films. Early Atomic Age science fiction complete with murder, commies and the promise of exciting futuristic space exploration!

(1959) Eddie Constantine, Richard Attenborough, Eva Bartok, Pier Angeli. Forget Alphaville, this IS the best Constantine film. Eddie's a tough sailor who's being flown back to the mainland for trial. Also on board is the sleazy snake who turned him in, played to the hilt by Attenborough. The plane is filled with many colorful characters: stuffy socialites, sexy playgirls, etc. During the flight, a fire erupts, injuring the pilot. Eddie is forced to land the plane near a remote island. After a hard landing, the plane sinks and the survivors head for shore. There they discover--to their horror--a giant lead bunker with cameras inside pointing out to a small rocky point on which sits the tell-tale tower of an atom bomb test device. The entire island will be blown to smithereens in a few hours! They don't make them much better than this. Wow! Shot in English. Yes! You'll hear Eddie's real voice (he's good). Our highest recommendation. 16mm.

(1953 aka PARK PLAZA 605) Tom Conway, Eva Bartok. Conway plays title character in this British mystery that finds him up against a Nazi baron who's involved in gem smuggling. From 16mm.
