A great 'B' movie
4 August 2002
How can one movie be so bad but so wonderfully good at the same time? Death Race 2000 accomplishes this. Set in the `future' of 2000, racers gear up to race in a cross county road race to see who can finish 1st with the most points. How do they collect points? By running people over of coarse. This movie is a far throw from the multimillion-dollar movies of today, but yet, tends to be as good, if not better, than some of the newer movies. It not only tells a fun and enjoyable story, it has fun sets and props. With a minimal budget this movie was able to make some *very* cool looking cars. This movie was meant to be taken seriously, but that is what makes it so good. It has laughable acting and a strange plot. If you enjoy older sci-fi movies, and David Carradine, you have to see this movie. This movie is a *must* see for all the campy movie fans, and sci-fi fans alike.
