Default "B" Biker Movies (well, maybe even "C")

I watched Easy Rider again not long ago, and was kind of surprised at how much it still seemed to "speak" to me. And we stayed up late with the kids (5 and 7) a few months back and watched "The Wild One", and everyone loved it.

And then there's that whole genre of second or third rate "biker movies," some of which are intentionally campy, others...it's not so clear what the intent was.

This afternoon, while stuck in the office for a while, I put on "Run Angel Run". Kind of enjoyed it in a weird kinda way. "Hell's Bloody Devils," "Hell's Angels 69", and this one came in a 3-pack from amazon for cheap cheap cheap. There's a bunch more of them.

I was just wondering what people think of these movies? Ever see any of them?

Beyond the Law and Hell Ride were pretty cool.

Yeah, I watch all of 'em, anything with a motorcycle. Heres a few more, "The Wild Angels" and "The Glory Stompers".

I need to get a DVD collection going......

Don't forget "Hells Angels On Wheels" starring Jack Nicholson.

+1 on that both those movies are great, also if you're lookin for a really cheesy biker movie Stone Cold is good for some laughs.

Hell Ride, the recent one, right?

my take is that it's just trying to "rekindle" biker movies from the past...just derivative.
