Wild Cars and Revved-Up Guitars!
Hick hipster Bud Eagle (Arch Hall, Jr.) arrives in L.A. just in time to stumble onto a TV talent show where he and his Wild Guitar become an immediate sensation. He's quickly signed by Mike McCauley, "the biggest manager in Hollywood," who promptly cheats, cons, and exploits the kid until Bud wises up and fights back...
Playing the cigar-chomping baddie is Archie's real-life daddy, Arch Hall Sr. ("William Watters"), who also produced (as "Nicholas Merriwether") and distributed the film under his Fairway International banner. Making his directorial debut (under his acting pseudonym, "Cash Flagg") by playing McCauley's creepy henchman, Steak. A fun, off-killer rock 'n' roll mini-epic, Wild Guitar also boasts a surreal beach party ending and a surprise cameo by the mummies from Eagah!
Plus: Five car-stripping psychos are The Choppers, teenage boys who reduce unattended autos to rubble and sell the parts to greedy salvage king Big Moose (Bruno Vesota). But the cops are quickly closing in, especially after an insurance investigator discovers a significant clue to the gang's identity: a chicken feather
