Hollywood or Boom
About This Broadcast
Rocky accepts a lucrative job driving a truckload of explosives to Hollywood and discovers the cargo is camouflage for fugitive Mike the Butcher, who is hiding inside with stolen postal money. Mike murders Rocky’s partner and tries to use Rocky and a redheaded passenger as disposable cover while double-crossing his own gang. The passenger turns out to be a postal agent, and after a dangerous showdown around the explosive truck, Mike is stopped and the stolen money recovered.
