Question
Two couples go on vacation in a motorhome.  They pull off of the road and witness a sacrifice.  They are on the run from the cult for the rest of the movie.  I think one of the couples gets away.  I also think this movie was made sometime in the 70's.
Thanks for your help.

Answer
Hi Chris,

The movie you are looking for is called "Race with the Devil" from 1975 and starring Warren Oates, Peter Fonda, Loretta Swit and Lara Parker. The following synopsis is taken from imdb.com:

"Frank and Roger and their wives take off for Colorado in a recreational vehicle, looking forward to some skiing and dirt biking. While camping en route, they witness a Satanic ritual sacrifice, but the local sheriff finds no evidence to support their claims and urges them to continue on their vacation. On the way, however, they find themselves repeatedly attacked by cult members, and they take measures to defend themselves."

Visit the following link for more information regarding this film:

The movie is readily available to buy from such places as amazon.com, DVD Universe, ebay, etc.

Best of luck,

Ryan
