Buyers beware of the Synergy version on sale here. The picture quality is incredibly poor - a 4:3 pan and scan of a widescreen original, so degraded as to have virtually no colour remaining (apart from a sickly yellow tint overall) this looks like a thousandth generation copy of something ripped from the TV.

A shame, since "Coast of Skeletons" is a likeable adventure yarn with a decent plot, good locations and some lively action scenes.

I may try the Australian version, which at least advertises itself as a widescreen transfer.

Got a glimpse of this nice Australian-made action adventure today and liked it very much. It is typical of the actioners made during this period and that's not bad. Done in color it has South African authentic backdrops and very good underwater sequences. Dale Robertson, popular American TV star of the time, and veteran British actor Richard Todd head an able cast for a delightful diversion for the old fashion type escape drama.
