Hart To Hart, Pan Am and White Line Fever


Every once in awhile a TV series is so popular that when after it leaves the airways reunion movies are made for the fans of the series.

One such series was Hart To Hart, starring Robert Wagner and Stephanie Powers.

With Mill Creek Entertainment’s just released the Hart To Hart Movies Are Murder DVD Collection all eight made-for-TV Hart To Hart m0vies are included. 

Join the Harts as they investigate an aerospace industry crime, a friend’s death, a Broadway play gone badly, a death threat, a family reunion, the death of their friend Max, an Australian trap and a case of mistaken identity.

Homicide is where the Hart is.

Actor Jan-Michael Vincent was an actor to be reckoned with during the 1960s and 1970s.  His fame was rising and it seemed he was in every major movie starring along side top-notch actors and actresses.

Even into the 1980s and briefly in the 1990s Jan-Michael was a frequent guest star on TV series and ‘B’ movies.

Unfortunately his wild lifestyle and bad choices caught up on him and he died a few years ago.

One of Jan-Michael’s big movie hits was White Line Fever put out in the mid-1970s and lovingly presented in a Blu-ray/VHS format.  It’s a blast from the past!

In the film he plays Carrol Joe Hummer: a hard-working trucker who just wants to make an honest living.

Arriving in Tucson with his pregnant wife Jerri, he realizes that he has been hired to ship illegal cargo.  When he refuses he is beaten up and his old friend Duane, who offered him work, is killed, his wife beaten and their unborn child killed.

Bad mistake!

Carrol Joe sets out on the path of vengeance and God help the hoodlums who killed his friend and child!  It’s all-out action and mayhem as only Jan-Michael Vincent could deliver it.

There was a time when flying commercial passengers had large comfortable seats, were provided full meals and served by a bevy of beautiful stewardesses.

The Complete Series Pan Am DVD Collection harkens back to 1963 as a group of stewardesses artfully and efficiently handle any situation from romance to natural disasters.

Buckle up...adventure calls.
