The Assassination Bureau

I rented this based on the Anvil & Sprocket review, and it did not disappoint -- a spy farce set in pre-WWI Europe. Imagine Austin Powers, but starring Diana Rigg, Oliver Reed, and Telly Savalas, and made in 1969, and based on an unfinished Jack London novel (!), and you get the picture. 3.0 stars. Almost lost a half-star for the dreadful song that crops up twice.
