There all alone lives a rather odd couple: a flabby old fool (Donald Pleasence) who dismally fails to satisfy the snippy little chippy (Françoise Dorléac) he has recently wed. She lusts for excitement, and suddenly she gets it. A mobster on the lam (Lionel Slander) staggers into the castle one fine day and institutes a nerve-shredding reign of terror: flashes his firearms, slashes the phone...

Lassiter obtained financing from a Pennsylvania Railroad subsidiary, signed up a board of directors that includes former Air Force Chief of Staff Curtis E. Le-May and Actor Jimmy Stewart, a reserve one-star general. Lassiter's 41 pilots were largely recruited among SAC veterans and former pilots of the Special Air Mission squadron in Washington; three have flown the presidential jet. "In our present group of pilots," boasts Lassiter, "we have the capability of flying any jet now in production...
