Wild Riders

I managed to dredge up an old biker flick that we hadn't seen before. I got copy of Wild Riders from 1971 and we fired it up on Wednesday night.

It opened with bikes and boobs. Some pretty awesome freakin bikes, to be honest. And a nice set of cans. But after the first minute or so it went downhill for the majority of the flick. And then BOOM it redeemed itself in the last minute of the movie in glorious style. Many of these biker flicks have a common component; a totally random / wacky / unexpected / shocking / nonsensical ending. And this movie really came through with a classic. The audience (all six of us) were pretty much on our feet. It required some rewinding for additional views.

The movie starts off as a biker flick in all the right ways but then after a couple of the dudes bugger off they leave the biker movie behind and it's pretty much a rape-y b-movie for an hour.

It was worth it for the ending.
