Trivia
Theresa Goren's Malibu beach house is the same as that of Joanna & Charles Clay in the "Last Salute to the Commodore," 15 years earlier.

Goofs
Malibu lies outside the city limits of Los Angeles, and thus outside the jurisdiction of the LAPD, in which Lieutenant Columbo serves. Homicides in Malibu would be investigated by detectives of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Columbo declares that he was sent to the crime scene by request. Therefore, his presence is legitimate.

Quotes
Lieutenant Columbo: Let 'im go. No law against shooting a dead body.

Please make it stop :(

Good lord, this is atrocious. First the good news. Peter Falk is as terrific as always. Anybody in a scene with him in this movie pales in comparison. He is basically wasted in this thing. His sleuthing, especially toward the end, is solid.

The acting by everybody else is soooo bad, its unreal. Andrew Stevens is just beyond bad. He over acts or he's bland. There is no in between. Geez, is this really the best they could do ? The story is boring. Long winded. I was glad when this movie ended. By the time the end came i did not care. Everybody besides Falk was mediocre to pretty bad. This was painful to watch. I did like some of the ocean and beach scenery. Maybe because nobody was talking. Lol.

Best moment : there isn't one.
