Rebel Highway was a revival of American International Pictures created and produced by Lou Arkoff, the son of Samuel Z. Arkoff, and Debra Hill for the Showtime network in 1994. The concept was a 10-week series of 1950s "drive-in classic" B-movies remade "with a '90s edge".

Over the next ten weeks, Jeff and Cheryl will be going over each of the made-for-cable TV movies that make up the Rebel Highway series.
