This quickie is about a former hood (Doug Wilson) who returns to his old stomping grounds to find out who killed his brother. The cops aren't too happy to see him; one of them tells Kelly to get outta town because he stinks. He refers to Wilson as "rough as a stucco bathtub." Wilson's mother isn't too happy to see him and tells him to get outta town. Wilson's former girlfriend (Jeanne Baird) tells him to ... well, you get the idea.
Wilson decides to look up his old pals (with classic names like Rico and Tony), but first he runs into Rico's wife (Marilyn O'Connor). The two quickly go to her apartment for some tonsil hockey, and, for a change, she doesn't tell him to get outta town. As the plot develops, we meet a hood named Rocky and a jerk named Squirrel. Meanwhile, Wilson and O'Connor exchange more saliva. Then Wilson collects some bruises and contusions because somebody wants him outta town. Eventually, we find out what happened to his brother, and Wilson gets outta town.
Wilson is decent in the lead, although the way his hair protrudes over his head was a bit much. All of the babes in the cast (including extras) are great looking ... except for the crone playing Wilson's mother. The jazz score is snappy, and the script is lively and fast moving.
Nationwide, this flick was on a double bill with The Amazing Transparent Man. That film was promoted with a million dollar contest in which moviegoers were asked what they would do with the invisible ray featured in that film. Get outta town!!!
