FElony Seal of Approval. Top notch cast and acting. Rated R for General Badassedness and Token Booberosity. Beats the livin' crap out of the garbage Hollywood has been spewing out lately. Where have all the B-movie car flicks gone?

Enjoy!

How have I never heard of this????  Michael madsen, dom delouise, and Corey Feldman is the trifecta of “so bad it’s gotta be good”. 

Not to mention it’s a car movie with Chad McQueen.  Surely he was cast in this based solely his last name.  Ha!  Looks like B movie awesomeness

I dig Michael Madsen. Every movie he's in, he just plays himself. One of my DVD's has an interview with him, and there is zero difference between him and his characters. Zero. Low key don't give a shit smart ass. Perfect.

Dom is quite similar. He's just Dom. In this flick, you can almost squint and imagine him talking to Burt Reynolds instead. Jan Michael Vincent as an Ugly Dude instead of his earlier roles as a Pretty Boy. Julie Strain, crowned B-Movie queen, as the 6'1" cheating wife. The guy in the white Jag with the huge jawline? Remember Tango and Cash hitting him at the same time in the prison scene?

But the best cameo here is one of my all-time idols, Ron Jeremy, as the gardener. Sleazy, uncouth, a pillar of debauchery. I always strove to emulate him. Actually, I have all those traits. I'm just not famous.

Yep, low-budget rocks. I used to have a friend that was into stuff like this. But, from what am told, he succumbed to the opioid epidemic and is no longer with us. Shame.

Can't be that low of a budget if they wrecked all those cars, some which were new at the time. Was the OJ chase that long ago? Figured this movie predated that but the "Blanco Bronco" is there in police impound.   Gratuitous boobery is nice, all B movies have to have those scenes... it's what the "B" stands for, right?

Yes, Tom, B is for boobs. And, I believe it is the exact same word for the exact same items in any language. Anyway, let's shimmy the budget up with the third of the Cannonball series, which many did not know existed. There was a last-minute change of name because Reynolds didn't want to do it. What a surprise; this movie lost money big time at the box office. However, lots of very recognizable actors in this flick. Lots. Opens with my favorite Euro car.

Yes! Great snorkelsaurus Mustang with loping idle. Good racing action. Too much touchy-feelie  drama in between with no booberosity, though. Gee, it was like they weren't trying to be a B-movie. Worth watching. Thanks for the link. Anyone else?

Ha! I KNEW none of you were thinkers. And not one questioned the existence of a Competition Plus Edition Mustang.

Sad.

It's just if I am going to lose a hour and twenty seven minutes to you tube, I'd rather be looking at porn or Russian bad drivers or porn or Jay Leno's garage or porn.

If if spend more than a couple hours a day looking at porn, I have to double down on the zinc additive to replenish all that toxic masculinity that is lost to absorbent paper products.

Born To Run was my last searches at Hastings before they closed. What was with the bad guy and his cronic asthma?
