The Coast Patrol Synopsis
John Slocum, a retired naval officer, runs a lighthouse, but the job he likes best is taking care of his young ward Little Beth. However, a sly smuggler named Eric Manmont and his beautiful accomplice Valerie are about to use John and Beth in a clever smuggling scheme. What they don't know is that the Coast Patrol has assigned agent Dale Ripley to find and capture the smugglers.
A Sister to Salome Synopsis
When famous opera singer Elinore Duane undergoes an operation on her throat, she has a series of ether-induced visions. In one, she is transported to ancient Rome where she appears as a much-admired woman in love with Paul, a young heretic, and at odds with Lutor, the high priest. To save her love, she poisons Lutor with her ring. After several other visions which involve variations on this love triangle, Elinore awakens to discover that Lutor is actually her doctor, Sascha Jaccard, and that Paul is the son of a friend who has come to visit the recovering prima donna.
"The Coast Patrol" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "A Sister to Salome" offers its own unique cult appeal.
