Highway Hell (DVD)

Pop Bartlett discovers that his roadhouse cabins are being taken over by a notorious prostitution ring. Lovely young ladies are hitchhiking their way to big cash, turning tricks on the highway for a handsome, fast-talking pimp named Slavick. When Bartlett opposes the illicit trafficking, Slavick has one of his girls lure Pop's son, Bob, with some easy sex. With Bob Bartlett under his control, Slavick is determined to take control of the cabins that will make him rich. The clash between Pop and Slavick explodes in violence, retribution and death.

Like all classic exploitation films, this Preview Pictures Production feigns a disapproving moralistic point-of-view, as it boldly depicts pretty young girls turning tricks on the highways.
