      dave j Tuesday, November 12, 2013 (1968) Crackshot CRIME DRAMA Originally made for TV and now available for rental has a couple of non- English speaking swimmers being killed off with not much to go on, except to assume that there's a connection between that and the loads of counterfeit money that was being confiscated. TV icon Jack Lord eventually shows up after 20 minutes in as hired killer Don Owens with heart for after he checks into a cheap motel, he then barges into a pub asking for a particular person only to be ransacked later by a couple of thugs. As it turns out that the guy Don's looking for is an Irish skipper who happened to double cross him. And the next thing you know an overweight guy who acts kind of like a middle man for some gangsters searching for the perfect "Crackshot" which is another term for "hit man" to perform a particular job and it happens to be the Jack Lord character who's really an undercover agent. Since it was originally made in 1968 before finally put on video in 1987, it's nothing but light weight stuff one can expect to see on TV which may have been much more effective during that time period but very tame in comparison to what we can see these days.
