Tom Stern is Vietnam vet Mike who returns from the war determined to take over his ex-bike gang “The Madcaps” and make them the top outlaw biker gang in the area. After seeing-off the existing president he leads the gang into an ever-escalating feud with the local cops which inevitably ends with a showdown with Sheriff Bingham (Jack Starett) and his men. The film is directed with plenty of low-budget snap by Bruce Kessler who gives the story pace, energy, fights, boozing and drugging while allowing the central theme to develop. That theme is well-handled with Sherriff Bingham coming across as a decent, thoughtful cop who (for a time at least) defends Mike and the bikers from the more aggressive antics of his men. The film has a nice bright look throughout thanks to cinematographer Herman Knox’s straight-forward, but highly effective shooting style. Tom Stern is good as Mike, the damaged vet, who gets progressively more psychotic as the film goes on. His gang is made up of a decent, well differentiated bunch of characters including Ted Markland as the chilled-out “Smiley”; Paul Bertoya as the well-named lunatic “Nutty”; Jimmy Murphy as fun runt “Tiny Tim” and Stephen Oliver as the spaced-out “Speed”. Arlene Martel provides solid, curvy support as biker-chick and Mike’s love interest “Ginger”. The film has a groovy score from Stu Phillips interspersed with five or six hippish songs performed by The Peanut Butter Conspiracy and The Lollipop Shoppe. Best of these is the Phillips composed (along with Guy Hemric and Byron Cole) theme song which is both widely inappropriate and great fitting fun at the same time. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
