Synopsis: Mickey Spillane’s hard-boiled detective Mike Hammer (Ralph Meeker) gets more than he bargained for when he picks up a woman wearing only a trenchcoat who was running along a highway and the men who want her dead target him as well!

Kitty Cameo: Near the end of the film Hammer makes a phone call to try to find the whereabouts of the person he suspects is behind all of the doings.  He gets the man’s answering service and for some reason there is an orange tom cat sitting on top of the switchboard which the woman is working.
