MOVIE REVIEW
Hell Ride (2008)
Will McGarry/Third Rail Releasing
Larry Bishop – best known for his starring roles in such Z-grade biker flicks as “Chrome and Hot Leather” – writes, directs and stars in “Hell Ride,” a new, painstakingly self-conscious tribute to those not-so
classics. That should basically tell
moviegoers all they need to know about the tone, content and style here. The film apes the dated, simplistic focus
on gang loyalties, comical bursts of overdone violence, and oppressive
objectification of women so characteristic to the male-oriented genre.
