Seven is a 1979 action film directed by Andy Sidaris and starring William Smith.
Seven was filmed at Oahu and Kauai in Hawaii. Robert Baird, who is credited along with William Driskill as screenwriter, is a pseudonym for writer and photographer William Edgar. The Hollywood Reporter budgeted the film at $2 million and noted that the film had "just completed" in their February 7, 1979 article.
Seven was released in the United States on September 21, 1979 where it premiered in Los Angeles. The film distributed by American International.
Variety stated that Seven is "filled with stock Hawaiian footage, and not very good stuff at that. Pic lags continually, which won't pacify the action audience." The review also noted that "product plugs are also heavy -handed, and enumerated again with a final credit." The Monthly Film Bulletin stated that the film was "rendered thoroughly mechanical by the laborious business of pairing off its seven hit men with their seven underworld targets. The film's trite efforts to make an impression with its bizarre methods of execution-by hang-glider, lasergun and inflatable sex doll-do little to offset the interminable exposition."
