Ride in a Pink Car (1974)

Directed by Robert J. Emery
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(VHS, Academy Home Entertainment)

Southern redneck car chase schlock with Glenn Corbett returning to his hometown where everyone thinks he was dead. His old girlfriend has married his brother, but she is still in love with him. An Indian friend is in jail for murder. When Corbett kills a man over another girl, he breaks the Indian out of jail, grabs his old girl friend and steals a pink Thunderbird. They get in shootouts with the police, crash through fruit stands in slow motion and eventually end up in a stand off in a cavernous old barn. The soundtrack is unusually obtrusive and bad, including some awful songs by the Indian on his acoustic guitar.
