...as dumb as it is, it has its moments, with a fairly suspenseful and exciting climax.

What was the secret of the movie's box-office success? Mostly good old sex and violence, a dash of Southern charm, and a heap of injustice.

This is a good ole fashion drive in "classic" Now i use the word classic loosely! This is far from being a classic, but its a prime example of 70's drive in nostalgia. Max Baer Jr. (Jethro of the Beverly HillBillies!) wrote and produced this one. This actually has really good acting from all involved. Its a fun movie
