Description: After a woman is found butchered in her New York apartment, suspicion falls on her estranged husband, an ad executive who has suddenly left town on a cross-country road trip. He takes along a beautiful girl he met in a bar and a drifter he picked up along the way. A cop sets out after the husband, but he’s more interested in shaking him down than bringing him back.
Review: “Uptight Philadelphia advertising executive Evan (coolly played with utmost assurance by Richard Beymer) immediately skips town in his Mercedes following the murder of a high class call girl. Prior to embarking on a cross country road trip to California Evan picks up neurotic prostitute, topless dancer and all-around kooky nympho nutcase Lois (an achingly vulnerable open-wound performance by luscious blonde honey Nina Axelrod, a flash-in-the-pan early 80’s fright film scream queen who eventually quit acting and became a casting director) and her equally high strung ex-con musician boyfriend John (essayed with mucho jittery menace by Brent Carver)… Meanwhile, ramrod homicide detective and would-be black mailer Ed Roersch (sternly portrayed by the ever-solid Michael Ironside) gives dogged chase.”
