Escape from El Diablo
DirectorGordon Hessler
“She got him in... They better get him out!”
Two young Americans, Pauli and Daniel, journey via motorcycle across the border into Mexico to visit a bar next to the infamous El Diablo prison. Pauli starts a fight with off-duty guards and is locked up. When Daniel realizes the corrupt guards are demanding a steep bribe, he rounds up their SoCal friends—including surfers and skateboarders—to stage a daring breakout.
