Reception
The New York Times was dismissive: "'Scorchy' is a stupid, brutal, horribly acted melodrama that is set in Seattle and stars Connie Stevens, who is pretty, though she looks like last year's Debbie Reynolds retread, as a narcotics detective. It was written, directed, and produced by Hikmet Avedis, which if it is a pseudonym, is the only indication of good sense connected with the movie.
