In 1982, 8 years after "Gone In 60 Seconds" was released, H.B. "Toby" Halicki returned in this car chase/crash extravaganza. By that, it means over 150 vehicles were destroyed in this film and was so popular it was listed in the "Gueiness Book Of World Records". Halicki stars as Harlan Hollis, a junkyard owner/filmmaker who just completed his third film. Hollis's brother-in-law, who works at his studio secretly hires a group of goons to kill him because he wants to take control of everything. Much of the movie consists of a 45-minute long car/airplane chase around the countryside. The car stunts are pretty awesome for 1982, back when computers still weren't interfering with automobile pursuits in film. Definitely worth a look.
