Devil At Your Heels, The

Aroview: Sensational, now classic documentary chronicling a major turning point in the life of stuntman Ken Carter, who is put under financial and public pressure to perform an 'impossible' stunt that involves jumping a car over the St. Lawrence River.

Both high-tension and hilarious, the amiable but over-ambitious Carter is backed up by eye-opening testimonials from many hangers on, and even stunt legend, Evel Knievel. A must-see for petrolheads and perhaps a forerunner of many latterday portraits of single-minded, deluded obsessives, this was a major inspiration of the Kiwi stunt comedy, THE DEVIL DARED ME TO.
