Kelly (Constance Towers) is a prostitute who shows up in the small town of Grantville, just one more burg in a long string of quick stops on the run after being chased out of the big city by her former pimp. She engages in a quick tryst with local police chief Griff (Anthony Eisley), who then tells her to stay out of his town and refers her to a cat-house just across the state line.
Sam Fuller is like a bigger budget version of Herschel Gordon Lewis. They both love schlock, sleaze and all that, but Fuller just made everything look a bit crisper and cleaner. And he also had a lot less gore. But he does not shy away from controversy, because we have a prostitute teaching handicapped children here. Maybe I am wrong, but this is sort of edgy for 1964... the independent streak really took off in the 70s, so he was way ahead of the curve.
