This film begins with four motorcyclists riding upon a gas station along the side of a rural highway. Noticing only one attendant there they subsequently rob the cash register and kill the man for no real reason. Satisfied with their loot three of the motorcyclists drive off while the fourth stays behind to grab some tools in the adjoining garage. It's then that a lone police officer appears and noticing the dead body in a nearby alley he cautiously enters the garage only to be ambushed by the motorcyclist. Although badly injured he manages to shoot and kill his assailant and then radios for assistance. Not long afterward another police officer spots the three bikers and gives chase--only to be killed in the process. Not overly concerned, the bikers soon rejoin the main group where the decision is made to avoid capture by escaping to Mexico. Upon the way, however, they notice a film company shooting a movie in an out-of-the-way location and decide to help themselves to everything there. While there the leader of the motorcyclists named "Monk" (Paul Carr) happens to see an old nemesis by the name of "Zeno" (Michael Forest) who he has been desperately searching for in order to settle an old score. But what he doesn't realize is just how resourceful Zeno can be. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was an okay "biker film" which featured dirt bikes instead of the standard "hogs" typically associated with outlaw biker gangs. That said, although this particular feature might engender some disdain from certain viewers it does, however, allow for a certain flexibility on the plot as a whole. In any case, while certainly not the best film of this sort, I found it worth the time spent to watch it and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.
