Kalle Kustaa Korkki is an old fashioned version of an international man of mystery. Once again loveable Ville Salminen is the bad guy and Reino Valkama is the helper of Joel Rinne's character. Story changes a bit, names changes also, but the faces are the same as in the Dead Man serie.

TRIVIA: There was a radio play of Kalle Kustaa Korkki and Pekka Lipponen before this film. It was written by Outsider. Joel Rinne played also a role in that.
