A woman's American odyssey becomes a road trip from hell, making her a victim of and then a fugitive from a corrupt political justice and law enforcement system that might as well be an extension of the betrayals of her workplace and home.

Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

Bucks the b-movie conventions by forsaking simple car chases and explosions for a surprisingly insightful little tale of rape and escape.

Saw this in the early 70's. Liked it. Didn't have the money to get in at the drive in...so I drove around back. The owner of the drive in came back to the fence and told me to come in...no charge. Enjoyed the film. Y.M. looked great through out.
