Scorchy – Downtown Seattle Dune Buggy Chase 1976

scorchyThis is for all of you longtime Seattleites. It’s a six minute dune buggy chase through downtown Seattle where Connie Stevens relentlessly pursues a vicious criminal at high speed through every gray nook and cranny of the Emerald City. How did they schedule so many sunny mornings to film it? The 1976 film from which this is excerpted, Scorchy, is summarized in IMDB this way, “Seattle undercover narc Jackie Parker (Stevens) is out to bust the drug smuggling ring commanded by Philip Bianco (Cesare Danova).” Below the chase sequence is the trailer for the film. Thanks to John Moe​, Jeff Carlson.
