well done TV wonderful world of disney sunday night staple

I remember seeing this one often on abc, sunday night right after "wild kingdom" pn the wonderful world of disney. They did quite a few of these types of films, presumably because the budget was lower than a feature film. They were also a little lost for a few years after walt died.

This one is also noteable because it features johnny whittaker and scott kolden, who would go on to be brothers in "sigmund and the sea monsters" on saturday mornings during this same year. Anyway, the plot inviolves a couple of brothers making a scary film during summer vacation who stumble onto a jewel heist in an old lighthouse. Ridiculously stupid criminals and not a swear word to be found.

The adventure genre features exciting journeys, quests, or expeditions undertaken by characters who often face challenges, obstacles, and risks in pursuit of a goal. Adventures can take place in a wide range of settings, from exotic and fantastical locations to historical or even everyday environments.

The comedy genre refers to a category of entertainment that aims to amuse and entertain audiences by using humor, wit, and comedic situations.

The horror genre features stories that aim to elicit fear, suspense, and a sense of dread in its audience. Horror stories often explore themes related to the unknown, the supernatural, and the macabre, and they frequently evoke strong emotional reactions such as anxiety, terror, and unease.

The mystery genre features the investigation and solving of a puzzle, typically a crime or an enigmatic event. Mysteries are known for their suspenseful narratives, intricate plots, and the challenge they present to readers or viewers to piece together clues and solve the central mystery alongside the characters.
