The Grissom Gang

Barbara Blandish, a young Kansas City heiress, gets kidnapped by some inept local hoodlums for the diamond necklace she is wearing, and then gets kidnapped a second time by the Grissom gang demanding a million dollar ransom. The Grissoms are led by Ma Grissom, a fury whose mustache and house dress clash, whose belief is that kidnapping plots go awry because the victim is allowed to live. Her bulletproof plan, however, does go haywire when her son Slim, a psychopathic, knife-wielder, falls in love with Barbara. Her billionaire father then hires Dave Fenner, a cynical private detective, to find her. A remake of the 1948 British film No Orchids for Miss Blandish. Starring starring Kim Darby, Scott Wilson, Tony Musante, Robert Lansing, and Connie Stevens.
