 PLOT SYNOPSIS
 =============

 Cult hero Paul Bartel directed this low-budget satire
 in which America's passion for cars, violence, and sporting 
 events are finally brought together in one convenient package.
 In the not-so-distant future, the United States has become a
 totalitarian regime overseen by the charming but sinister 
 Mr. President (Sandy McCallum), who, in order to satisfy the 
 masses' need for entertainment (and to quench their thirst for
 violence), has created a new national sport — the Death Race, 
 a nationwide road rally in which the winner is not determined
 by who finishes first, but by who scores the most points along
 the way by running over hapless pedestrians. Aspiring champions
 Machine Gun Joe Viterbo (Sylvester Stallone), Calamity Jane
 (Mary Woronov), Nero the Hero (Martin Kove), and Matilda the Hun
 (Roberta Collins) are all looking to take the top honors away from 
 Frankenstein (David Carradine), a half-man/half-machine who has
 been built to be the best racer on Earth and can outrun and 
 outkill anyone on the circuit. However, not everyone likes the 
 Death Race, and revolutionary leader Thomasina Paine
 (Harriet Medin) wants to sabotage the event in the name of
 restoring democracy; her plan is to foil Frankenstein's 
 expected victory by smuggling her daughter Annie (Simone Griffeth)
 into Frankenstein's race car as his navigator. Featuring 
 David Carradine at the height of his Kung Fu fame 
 (and Sylvester Stallone a year before Rocky), Death Race 2000 
 was a major drive-in hit in 1975; Bartel and Carradine teamed
 up for another road race movie, Cannonball, a year later, and
 a semi-sequel, Death Sport, appeared in 1978.

 Review
 ======
 Death Race 2000 is the type of bad movie that
 can be very good, or, at least, a whole lot of fun
 -- the formula for a cult classic. It offers a 
 surprisingly effective mix of violence, sex, and humor,
 all the more impressive given its modest budget. 
 B-movie veteren David Carradine is appropriately gruff 
 as the weary Frankenstein, and a pre-Rocky Sylvester Stallone
 is cast with comic perfection as -- what else? -- an Italian thug.
 Rounding out the extensive group of bizarre competitors is
 cult favorite Mary Woronov, as the cowgirl Calamity Jane.
 The gore gets a little excessive, perhaps not surprising given
 that the film was produced by Roger Corman, legendary for 
 high-quality, low-budget exploitation films. The movie is not 
 entirely without redeeming moral value, however. Like 1987's
 The Running Man, it does a good job of satirizing the blood lust
 of professional sports and the TV shows that enable and
 encourage it. Maybe this is a film that one shouldn't think 
 too much about. But if you can handle spurious accusations against
 the "treacherous French," and you don't mind assigning point values
 to pedestrians, Death Race 2000 is a heck of a trip.
