The Secret of Blood Island is a 1964 British war film directed by Quentin Lawrence and starring Jack Hedley, Barbara Shelley and Patrick Wymark. According to TV Guide, the film was shot in Eastmancolor and released that way in England, but the U.S. prints were in black & white.
British Prisoners of War help a wounded female agent to escape the Japanese during the Second World War.
The film is a prequel to the 1958 film The Camp on Blood Island.
TV Guide called the film "fairly silly". The Radio Times called it "lurid but fairly enjoyable."
