    Storyline

    Edit
    Hammerhead is a dangerous international criminal suspected by British Intelligence of trying to steal NATO defense secrets. In desperation, a young, charming soldier of fortune is called in to match wits and guts in man-to-man combat with Hammerhead. His name is Charles Hood and he operates in London (the wilder parts) and moves on to the Portuguese coast in pursuit of Hammerhead and pursued by pert, kooky London model Sue Trenton. —filmfactsman

    • Trivia
      The literary Charles Hood character is considered a James Bond type. Novelist Stephen Coulter was a friend of Bond creator Ian Fleming who had served with Fleming in the British Intelligence section of the Royal Navy during the Second World War. Both became journalists and wrote for both Reuters and the Sunday Times. 'Shamelady', the title of the third Charles Hood novel, is a phrase that is also associated with Ian Fleming. Coulter provided background information for Fleming's first James Bond novel 'Casino Royale'.
    • Goofs
      Although the film is set in Portugal, there are continued mistakes using Spanish art, signs and language. They even order Sangria at the bar.
    • Quotes

      Hammerhead: There's something intrinsically honest about pornography. The more perverse, the more honest it becomes.
