Summary: Needs to be Remade
Review: This movie is excellent on many differnet levels. On the surface, it is a spectacle of fast cars, bloody violence, cheap production, great laughs and Stallone at his best. On a deeper level, it is almost how this satirizes our current sports culture of ESPN and WWF style extremety. This is a flim, if properly redone, would make an excellent remake.

Review: Super-schlock film by offbeat cheesemeister Paul Bartel. This film has it all, hokey dialogue "battered, shattered, creamed and reamed - the world loves you Frankenstein!" , bad acting, dodgy FX, and ridiculous characters. True Brilliance. Never takes itself seriously (although David Carradine does try) as racers compete for points by winning race stages across america and killing pedestrians on the way. I guess its the only film to feature a "Euthanasia Day". This film is an absolute icon of 70's budget sci-fi. Even Stallone doesn't do a bad job.

Summary: road rage adventure
Review: This is a cheesy movie - part comedy, part road movie, part science fiction. Involves a good deal of low buck violence and nudity. I watched it for the cars which was disappointing, unlike the Gumball Rally, which features some real machines, this has old Corvettes with plastic fangs and other junk. Not a very P.C. film but if that's what your in the mood for, it goes down well in an odd, B-movie kind of way.

Summary: This one is something else!
Review: Well, Death Race 2000 marks one of the first movies by Sylvester Stallone and one of many by David Carradine. This movie was made in 1975 and it shows it. The basic story is about a race from New York City to Los Angeles in a futuristic (yet Bizarre) year 2000. This movie could fall under Science Fiction, Action and Comedy. Its interesting to say the least. The cars are cool, the acting is ok. If you do not like violence, I wouldnt recommend this movie. It can be Brutal at times. Definitely rent this one before you buy it. Its good but it isnt great.

Summary: This was one of the first of its kind!
Review: I have great memories of this one! In a warped way, today's drivers seem to do this type of racing...(road rage, manic, drunk, etc).I recommend it to all interested. Not highly, due to the bad acting and such. The ending (winners) are a surprise too!

Summary: Awesome
Review: Hey, what more can I add that hasn't already been said? When this first came out in lurid color on the Big Screen I loved it. And I love it today after watching it a hundred times. Carnivorous cars driven by caracature cowgals and gangsters, nazis with names like "Mathilda the Hun" and "Herman the German", and a mysterious champion named Frankenstein whose oft-rebuilt face is always masked, not to mention the Resistance, the French Air Force, and all the other "dear friends". Just don't get to like any of them too much. If you've never seen this sick, hilarious parody, get it now. Mr. President will love you for it.

Review: did the makers of Carmegeddon see this movie? Well, I think having said that anyone who's played the game will know pretty much what to expect. I once heard someone say that this movie was supposed to be some kind of social satire, on Social Darwinism or something? Well, that is very difficult to believe. Sylvester Stallone's non-porn debut (yes, it's true, he used to make porn movies) is an all-out blood n gore fest, complete with ludicrous over-acting, campy gags, naked women and cheesy spatter-type special effects. While not everyone's cup of tea, and it's certainly not Ingmar Bergman, it is very fast-moving and fun (what could you expect from Roger Corman) and probably contains one of the highest cinema body-counts this side of Peter Jackson's Braindead. Rumour has it that a remake is in the works called Death Race 3000. Should be fun.
