Synopsis by Hal Erickson

Thunderstorm was produced in Spain by actress Binnie Barnes, though one suspects that most of the production details were handled by her husband Mike Frankovich. Carlos Thompson plays fisherman Diego Martinez, who while casting his nets one day comes up with quite a catch -- Maria Ramon (Linda Christian), whom Diego saves from drowning. It isn't long before practically every male in the village, including mayor Pablo Gardia (Charles Korvin) and Gardia's son Miguel (Gary Thorne), has fallen madly in love with Maria. Alas, her presence brings only misfortune for all concerned, leaving her no alternative to leave the village by returning whence she came -- the open sea. Thunderstorm was released in the U.S. by Allied Artists.
