She breaks out in a most unusual way when her skydiving hobby is enlisted by a Scotsman to uncover an atomic weapon hidden away in a Ming statue. This 1967 spy film showcases Welch's greatest talents in a wide array of swimwear while weaving a James Bond style tale of intrigue and fleshy pleasures. Clive Revill excels as Sergi Serapkin, a villainous figure whose fear of cold water deadens his menacing power. Yet, the main villain is Communist China as FATHOM fans the flames of the Cold War.

Reviews for Fathom
Raquel Welch is bubbly as Fathom, but she fails to go beyond the ‘pretty girl in tight clothing’ depth that was written into the role.
(Welch), naturally--deserves getting prodded about by a bull while a collection of bad guys poke at her with phallic shunts.
Those looking for a trip back to the swingin’ sixties, Spanish style, may enjoy Fathom quite a bit, and those who adore the lovely Ms. Welch will have a ball.
