Murder in Space (Arthur B. Rubinstein)

 

An outer space mission hits a snag when one of the crew members is killed, which could potentially create an international incident between the United States and the Soviet Union. Made-for-cable mystery has an interesting premise, but squanders it with a dull execution. Some good actors go to waste (and the less said about Martin Balsam's Russian accent, the better).

However, Arthur B. Rubinstein provided an exciting score based on a properly sinister four-note melody for brass.
