Year of the Comet (1992)

Synopsis: A wine buyer's young daughter goes to Scotland to assess the contents of a deceased man's cellar; the mansion in which it sits is currently occupied by thugs who are after a formula for rejuvenation. There, she finds a very rare bottle. A young man who represents her father's client soon joins her and a conflictuous relationship develops between the two, leading to a romantic tryst among the dangers of perilous chases.

Appraisal: Inanely plotted romantic adventure which is nevertheless somehow watchable due to a fair degree of self-mocking, and authentic location shooting.

Rating: 31
