Mark L. Lester (Truck Stop Women, Class of 1984) directs his first movie with this edge of your seat action seat.
Special Features and Technical Specs:
Synopsis: Mark L. Lester (Steel Arena, Class of 1984) directed this exploitation feature that treats sex, violence, and sensationalism with love and affection. The story concerns a bloody turf battle between Smith (John Martino, The Godfather), a mob hit man, and independent gun moll Anna (Lieux Dressler, Kingdom Of The Spiders) over Anna's prostitution and theft operation, originating out of a highway truck stop. Helping Anna to fight for her right to promote thievery and debauchery is her well-endowed daughter Rose (Claudia Jennings, Gator Bait). As the plot and plenty of flesh is revealed, Rose is coaxed to Smith's side of the field with the incitement of some long green, while the body count on both sides continues to rise.
