I have heard about this movie for years and finally took the plunge to watch it. I found it to be ok, for what it is.
The filmmakers couldn't make up their minds as to what the movie was about, or so that's what it appears to me. In the first five minutes we hear a radio bulletin about a crazy woman named Daphne who has escaped from a state mental in California.
Then the story switches to four guys heading for Yuma Arizona who see a sexy blonde hitchhiking. They pick her up and one of the men named Charlie Johnson (Anthony Holt) decides to rape her at a secluded cabin.
The woman named Cindy (Laurie Tait Partridge) files charges and the next hour of the film is all aboout the effects it has on the four men and their attorneys' fighting for each of them. It runs like a made for TV film.
I haven't read much good about this, but I didn't mind it at all. Daphne's revenge takes place in the final minutes of the film and all is explained towards the end as well, so it all falls into place.
I can tell you that this was made in about 1977 based on the clothes, women's hair and cars. I was around back then and remember it all very well.
The presentation on the Blu-ray is beautiful. Again, I liked this movie better than most and I haven't given away too much as I want more people to see this movie and decide for themselves.
The rest of the cast includes Richard Gardner, Candy Castillo, and James Avery.
