The Green Buddha Reviews

Yankee charter pilot Morris inadvertently finds himself in the midst of thieves who have purloined a costly antique jade figure from an exhibit. He tracks the thieves to Battersea, where he rescues the fair Germaine from their unsavory clutches, and the Buddha boosters gain only jaded justice. An unusual effort for Republic, this film was shot in England using local talent for the most part, rather than the company's own familiar Hollywood studio, locations, and personnel. With the near demise of the B picture, the troubled Republic was, at the time, attempting to make the transition to material of a higher grade. This wasn't it.
