It gets Burton and Taylor, comfortably matched, making nonsense of theme and relationships, and giving monotonously unsubtle performances (she screeches, he glooms).

There are different kinds of bad movies. Some are simply wretchedly bad, like well, you know. Others are bad but fascinating and Boom! is one of these.

Those things that in the earlier versions of the work had been metaphorically stylized, have been made stunningly literal in Boom!

If you can make any logical sense of the curious lines of dialogue, then congratulations--you may be the first to be able to decipher this cinematic non sequitur.

The mostly negatively reviewed film did little to help the plummeting careers of Burton and Taylor.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Sissy Goforth (Elizabeth Taylor), the world's richest woman, has retired to her lavish island estate to dictate her autobiography when poet Chris Flanders (Richard Burton) washes up on her beach. Flanders has the unfortunate reputation of calling on a lady one step before the undertaker and is known as the angel of death. Undaunted by this, Goforth undertakes to make Flanders her last lover.
