Two rival bikers gangs, the Victors and the Six-Six-Six's, refuel their decades-old rivalry.
Well, I found this movie great. Not spectacular, but great.
If you're a fan of the grindhouse, B-movie genre then this is definitely the movie for you. A simple story, with interesting dialogue people penalise this movie for the fact that the dialogue is bland, the acting is amatueristic. However, one thing you have to take into consideration when watching Hell Ride is: it's not meant to be a blockbuster. Nor will it ever be, it's just a fun 84 minute biker flick. Eric Balfour delivered a brilliant performance as Bix/Comanche. Michael Madson, as always, was an amazing choice for his role.
Now, Larry Bishop...
He's not such a brilliant actor. As many people will agree with me, he should spend more time behind the camera rather than playing the lead role.
The setting was great, the cheesy peyote tripping worked well and the cameo performances of Dennis Hopper and David Carradine fitting in nicely.
If you don't like the B-movie genre, explicit dialogue or guns and mud wrestling then this isn't the movie for you.
Otherwise, enjoy :)
