Bill Martin ( Dick Foran ) owns a deserted island and a boat but not much else. He and his mate Stuff ( Fuzzy Knight ) bump into a peg-legged sea captain Tobias Clump ( the very tires with half a treasure map pointing to the island. Though believing it's a fake, Bill advertises a treasure hunt on his island as an "experience" and attracts a motley bunch of thrill-seekers, mostly with their own agendas. The plot then unwinds at a breakneck pace that leaves you breathless but unsatisfied.
Peggy Moran ( as Wendy Creighton )
Sex : Peggy's not the prettiest actress we've come across but she certainly fills her nightdress impressively.

Sex : No
Death : Survives
By contrast , Iris had a long career as a supporting player and then character actress in Disney films of the seventies. She died in 1994 aged 82 after sustaining injuries in an earthquake.
