Having watched this when I were a lad I'd forgotten how good the cast was. Seeing it again yesterday was a delight, even if it meant realising that I'd got Joan Hackett and Barbara Parkins mixed up all these years. Shame that Charlton Heston turned into a caricature o' hisseylf.

The young woman who plays Donald Pleasance's girlfriend looked familiar.
Didn't she play Dolores in "In the heat of the night"?
I don't remember her from anything else though.
Oh so you couldn't look it up?
Just kidding yes that's her, she never had much of a career.
One Bond baddie and two future Bond stars were in this film, whats more they starred with three different 007s
Donald Pleasance (Blofelt)with Sean in YOLT 1967
Clifton James (Sheriff J.W. Pepper) with Roger in LALD 1973
Anthony Zerbe (Milton Krest) with Tim in LTK 1989

What?
F'ing sh!t up since 2008! http://www.willferrellfanforum.tk/
I'm not sure how Charlton Heston turned into a caricature of himself. Just by being a public voice in favor of preserving the second amendment? Supporting Republican candidates? Nothing makes that a caricature or a crime.
I agree it is a great cast. Joan Hackett and Charlton Heston have wonderful chemistry. And Donald Pleasence was Donald Pleasence.

Stripping under the name Malcolm Sex, I pleased the ladies by any means necessary.
Agreed. The cast for this film was first-rate. I especially enjoyed seeing such familiar character actors as Slim Pickens, Ben Johnson, Anthony Zerbe, William Schallert, Clifton James, G.D. Spradlin, Matt Clark, Roy Jenson, and even Luke Askew sprinkled throughout.
I'm a totally bitchin' bio writer from Mars!
Heston never "turned into a caricature o' hisseylf". He remained a great actor to the end. He also worked for civil rights, and campaigned to uphold the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Neither of those efforts meant he was a bad person, despite what we hear from a lot of morons.
