Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/5 --
In the end, it reveals itself to have nothing to say beyond the superficial about government or rebellion. And in the absence of such a statement, it becomes what it seems to have mocked -- a spectacle glorifying the car is an instrument of violence.

Rating: 9/10 --
A movie that has a little bit of everything, and it's easily the best version of itself that could possibly be put together.

Rating: 9/10 --
A terrifically entertaining movie, and a sharp, funny social commentary from start to finish.

Director Paul Bartel perfected his brand of blackhearted humor on this ragged production, overcoming budgetary restraint with inspired moments of B movie spectacle...

The conception and execution are top-notch low-budget trash.

Lessons of Darkness
...Paul Bartel mocks the media's appetite for carnage and the public's bloodlust while working miracles on a slim budget...

An all-time gonzo classic.

Product Description:
More delightfully sick humor from Bartel (EATING RAOUL). In a boorish future, the government sponsors a popular, but bloody, cross-country race in which points are scored by mowing down pedestrians--with bonus points for the elderly! Five teams, each comprised of a male and female, compete using cars equipped with deadly weapons. Frankenstein, the mysterious returning champion, has become America's hero, but this time he has a passenger from the underground resistance. A legendary cult film.
