Lisa Gaye (Ten Thousand Bedrooms) is 16-year-old Dixie Ann Dykes, rejected by her phony Christian foster parents after being raped and abandoned by members of her high school football team, in Richard Galbreath's low-budget Night of Evil, his only feature film. Dixie's fate takes a turn for the worse when she hooks up with a psychopathic criminal (William Campbell from Dementia 13), finds work as a stripper, and is implicated in the robbery of a drug store. Her downward spiral is introduced by gossip columnist Earl Wilson as a cautionary tale "based on a true story." Also with Lynette Bernay from Roger Corman's The Pit and the Pendulum, Don de Leo from Larry Peerce's cynical The Incident, and Joseph Garri (Joe Sarno's Sin in the Suburbs).
