The Traveling Executioner

A unique sense of dark humor drives this unusual tale, set in 1918, that follows Jonas Candide (Stacy Keach), a former carny who travels from prison to prison in the American South with his own portable electric chair. Asking $100 for every zap, Jonas finds his business threatened when he falls for the beautiful Gundred (Marianna Hill), one of a pair of siblings he's been hired to execute. Bud Cort, Graham Jarvis, James Sloyan, M. Emmet Walsh co-star. 95 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
