Southern California teenagers hang out at the beach singing songs and the local drug store dancing to rock and roll on the juke box. A leather-clad motorcycle gang interrupts their idyllic life, picking out one of them in particular because of his cute girlfriend. At first, he resists their ploy to get him to fight, but eventually is pushed to the edge and surprisingly beats the gang member. Later, he is challenged to a game of chicken on a railroad track and harassed on the highway. He gets charged with manslaughter when one of the motorcycle gang is killed in an accident and must defend himself in court. Fay Wray is his mother in this overwrought melodrama, which by the way has no dragstrip and certainly no dragstrip riot.
