My Blood Runs Cold (1965)


Warner Bros.
Directed by William Conrad
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Warner Archive Collection)

Troy Donahue is a mysterious man who shows up at the mansion of playgirl Joey Heatherton claiming that they are both reincarnations of lovers dead over a hundred years. She is naive enough to believe him, wrecking her engagement to Nicolas Coster and infuriating her parents. They take off one night in his yacht to get married in Mexico. Before they can get there he has a nervous breakdown and the truth comes out. It wants to be a Gothic romance but is more like a lurid melodrama. No opportunity is wasted to show Heatherton in tight jeans, short nighties or revealing bathing suits.
