NOTHING against JASON STATHAM...

DEATH RACERS Theasylum.cc " Don't Get Me Wrong, I Like Jason Statham !" Butt, This is an awesome 'car wars' type film like the Original 'Death Race' with Carradine & Stallone. The cast (which we can discuss later),writers and director DID there jobs amazingly. The cars were great and by Sota FX, They need to do those cars shows or go to the Las Vegas resort with Automobile Museum. There is a Scarface Car, Lesbo Web ? sports car, GI Joe-ish Jeep, and The ICP Clown Screamer...with Product Placement speakers. The plot, YES, The plot moves along...You have a bad guy who isn't all bad and HEROES who love to kill anyone in their way. Cast: Insane Clown Posse are very likable in a PENNYWISE from "IT" kind of way, Again setting Clowndom back aways . Raven from WWE does a journeyman job as bad guy, Work more sir. Dustin Fitzsimmons (guy with video camera) has the most to do besides ICP and his character goes thru some 'bad ju-ju'. Robert Pike Daniel as governor is quite a character, Not changing any views in a election year. Damien Puckler (metal man) In a suit by Makeup Guru Joe Castro. Damien might have one of the BEST non-speaking roles, YOU just plain rock-Sir !Kind of a riff on Vernon Wells Mohawked Baddie from 'Mad Max'. Stephen Blackehart (tv host) was one of my first interviews with my old site and Is finally getting the meaty roles with Theasylum and Full Moon. Minor( but favorable) mention goes to : Jason Ellefson- He was great as a Scarface " Tony Montana" issued mess of a driver, This is a minor accolade, Because YOU WERE SO MEAN in "Street Racer" ! ... Also Ken Hall and his fabricators and Chris Watson for your editing prowess on trailer.
