Das Wiegenlied der Verdammten (1971)
Kurz vor Ende des 2. Weltkriegs torpediert ein plünderndes deutsches U- Boot in der Südsee ein bewaffnetes Handelsschiff. Als Murphy, ein irischer Flugzeugmechaniker und zugleich der einzige Überlebende, erfährt, daß die Deutschen die rettungssuchende Besatzung des Schiffes mit Maschinengewehren erledigt hat, schwört er, Rache zu nehmen. Murphy nimmt sich vor, auf eigene Faust und ganz allein, Rache an dem U- Boot und dessen Kommandanten zu vollziehen. Er macht ein altes Flugzeug flott und bastelt Bomben und Torpedos. Ein mörderischer Kampf beginnt...
