TMBDOS! Episode 312: "The Wild Angels" (1966) & "Deathsport" (1978).
Manage episode 424174882 series 2363715
Lee is joined this episode by his friend and fellow podcaster Cameron Scott to continue the podcast's extended look at Roger Corman-directed and produced films. This time out its two wildly different motorcycle films, the first being Corman's own "The Wild Angels" (1966), starring Peter Fonda, Nancy Sinatra, Bruce Dern and Diane Ladd as members of a violent, and unfortunately, quite rapey chapter of the Hells Angels. Then it's David Carradine and Claudia Jennings in the spiritual sequel to "Deathrace 2000", "Deathsport" (1978), directed by Allan Arkush, Nicholas Niciphor & Corman. Does a production so troubled as this film had equal a terrible finished product, or are there joys to be had with such a jumbled mess? Put on your helmet, hop on our future bikes, and find out!
