Northville Cemetery Massacre

The Captain thought this was the best film of the season. Or at least one of the best. I wasn't so sure. Maybe it's because I had just watched C.C. and Company and that was so good that I thought Northville Cemetery Massacre didn't hold up as well.

Obviously the endearing thing about this flick is that is was filmed in Northville, Plymouth and Detroit. You can recognize the streets and old buildings they're hanging around in. The effects were pretty decent. It was filmed in 1972 and released in 1976. They had a slightly more robust plotline going on than what we're used to. But as you'd expect, it wasn't ground-breaking by any stretch of the imagination either. Cop vs. biker war.

The bulk of the bikers were actual Detroit riders from the outlaw M/C, the Scorpions. It must be cool to look back and see themselves immortalized in their 70's glory. They even filmed at their old clubhouse (swastikas included). They had bad ass fucking bikes and they looked pretty awesome, though.

For some reason the audio sync wasn't really all that great. And the editing was super shitty. Go figure. They had a pretty cute chick, though. Hot 70's number for sure.

The movie was pretty good. Not my all-time favorite this season, but not a dud by any stretch of the imagination (in context, of course).
