Touch of Death was a black and white British crime genre film released in 1961, starring William Lucas and directed by Lance Comfort.
A criminal gang pull off a big robbery, unaware the cash has been infected with toxic poison. The thieves hide out on a Thames houseboat and terrorise its female occupant (Jan Waters), before they start dropping like flies.
Allmovie wrote, "Director Lance Comfort wasn't what you could call inspired, but he sure knew how to sustain audience interest."
