Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Jack Mulhall and Josephine Dunn visit the remote mountain mansion of Dunn's scientist father Frank Ball, hoping to obtain his blessings for their marriage. They soon learn that poppa has been working on the "DXL Accumulator" -- a solar-powered death ray, which would prove disastrous should it fall into the wrong hands (there are right hands?) It doesn't take long for murder to rear its ugly head, forcing hero and heroine to race against time to prevent the theft of the killer ray and the destruction of all mankind -- or at least, of the other cast members.
