Essentially a reworking of familiar Agatha Christie formulas, "Dead Man's Island" is not a great movie, but I'm just glad that mysteries of this type are still being made. A remote island, a huge house, assassination attempts, family secrets, an amateur detective, and about a dozen suspects. But there is at least one rather unique twist on the formula (don't read the following sentence if you want to avoid SPOILERS: Usually when a character becomes the target of an unknown killer in these movies, he (or she) either gets killed in the first half ,or he (or she) survives to the end; here, NEITHER of those two things happens!). And then there's the cast: where else could you see people like David Faustino (of "Married With Children" fame), Traci Lords, and William Shatner all together? Nowhere. Though this movie largely belongs to Barbara Eden, who is not only the narrator and the amateur detective of the story, but also one of the HOTTEST 60+ years old actresses you'll ever see. Seriously, she makes even Traci Lords herself almost invisible. (**1/2)

I wish I had a copy. I didn't have time to record it onto VHS. It was so good. Awesome star power. Wonderful script. A perfect movie. One of Barbara Eden's best. Loved the storm effects. The explosion. W H A T AAA+ flick No disappointments Suspenseful Really keeps you on your toes. Too good to miss. They should show it more often. Especially, instead of awful reality shows. Very good movie. 100 stars. Kudos to the cast and director. I'm not too big on Shatner, but what a performance. Morgan Fairchild was brilliant. And Barbara Eden's acting is unparalleled. Wish they'd put it on video or DVD. I would buy it if I had the chance.

A fine movie with a rather unusual plot. William Shatner who plays Chase Prescott , a man with a business empire is very well cast. Barbara Eden as his designated detective is excellent and very convincing. It seems that everyone on the island except Barbara Eden (Henri O) is suspected of trying to murder him. Many mysterious occurrences makes the viewer wonder what is going to happen next. Henri O (Barbara Eden) as the detective is also in great jeopardy. William Shatner and especially Barbara Eden are very convincing. As in all her movies Barbara is always in control and courageous.

What can I say! It has Barbara Eden in it and that is all you need! A rich man who believes someone is out to kill him hires his ex to solve the case. Who would want to divorce Barbara? Check it out if you can!
