Nightmare Honeymoon is a 1974 film directed by Elliot Silverstein. It stars Dack Rambo and Rebecca Dianna Smith.
Newlyweds David and Jill Webb (Dack Rambo and Rebecca Dianna Smith) want nothing more than to consummate their marriage in New Orleans. But on their way to “The Big Easy,” they witness a murder. And when the sadistic killer (John Beck) realizes he’s been caught in the act, he knocks David unconscious and rapes Jill. Eventually, David learns the story of his wife’s assault, and sets out on a relentless vendetta to find the rapist and his partner and bring them to justice.
Hal C.F. Astell of Apocalypse Later Website said, "No, this is not intelligent stuff and I'm not even sure why it's (still available). Maybe it's because Elliot Silverstein, a director more prolific on TV than cinema screens, also made such cult favourites as Cat Ballou, A Man Called Horse and The Car. ... John Beck is the best reason to watch this film, even though he could easily have won the Best Overactor award that year with his bug eyes and twitches. He's just plain old fun to watch and by the time we get to the finale I half expected Jill to run to him instead of her idiot husband..."
