Quote HistoryQuoted:
Theatrical genius. There are few movies ever committed to film that are so skillfully executed. It is the standard by which all '80s car racing movies are judged. In this respect, it is to its genre what "Rad" was to BMX racing, or "Gleaming the Cube" to skateboarding. Well said! Great movie, love the soundtrack.

I'm waiting for the sequel with bated breath. It'll be called "The Grapes of Wraith".
[And, yes, the correct term is "bated breath" not 'baited breath".] |

Cheesy but fun. Lot's of cheese in the 80s, but what glorious and righteous cheese it was.
80s cheese was best cheese. Like Hot Dog, the ,movie. Also see Red Sonja, and The Beast Master. And the ultimate cheese for action, Commando. |

My first job off the farm was working in a video store in 1985.
What an amazing experience. Tons of movies made every year. Good ones, bad ones, blockbusters. Many production companies willing to make a few bucks. Whenever I see a title from a movie in the '80's I instantly see the posters and the box covers. And I made $5 an hour. I was rich, not gonna lie. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Still trying to figure out how Chrysler got one of their concept cars wrapped up in that whole deal. Damn I am old, that movie was kind of one of those "watch it whenever it comes on" sorta time wasters. There was a lot of Turbo Mopar action in that film. It's a favorite of the Shelby Dodge Automobile Club to say the least. If anyone wants to check out one of the M4S cars there is one at the Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills, MI. |
