Movies - Murderers' Row


Murderers' Row (sometimes spelled Murderer's Row) is the title of a 1966 American comedy-spy-fi motion picture starring Dean Martin
and very loosely based upon the Matt Helm spy novel of the same title by Donald Hamilton, which was published in 1963.

The film was the second of four produced in the late 1960s starring Martin as secret agent Matt Helm, and like its predecessor The Silencers
, took a much more light-hearted approach to the source material, treating it more as a gadget-laden spoof of James Bond films than Hamilton's original serious spy story. The film begins with Helm faking is own death in order to track down and kill Dr. Solaris, who has developed a powerful laser beam capable of mass destruction. (The next year's Bond film, You Only Live Twice
, would also begin by faking the lead character's demise.)

Co-starring with Martin are Ann-Margret
as "Suzie Solaris", Karl Malden
as Julian Wall - a villain with a metal nose - and Richard Eastham as Dr. Solaris. Dino, Desi, & Billy, a popular rock and roll group of the day which featured Martin's real-life son, Dean Paul Martin
, makes a guest appearance.

Murderers' Row was followed by The Ambushers
(1967) and The Wrecking Crew
(1969). A fifth film, The Ravagers, was announced but never produced.
