Paul Bartel rips off his own
Death Race 2000 in this mindless car-crash saga, containing more twisted metal than a bombed-out steel mill. The nominal storyline concerns an illegal auto race from Los Angeles to New York that promises the winner 100,000 dollars.
David Carradine is
Coy "Cannonball" Buckman, the race leader who drags his girlfriend,
Linda (
Veronica Hamel), along for the ride.
Cade Redman (
Bill McKinney) tools around in a loud red Trans Am, while
Cannonball's nemesis barrels along in a big, black Plymouth, trying to outsmart
Cannonball at every turn and exit ramp. The pile-ups keep building, and the cameos (
Roger Corman,
Martin Scorsese,
Sylvester Stallone,
Joe Dante,
Paul Bartel) keep coming, but
Cannonball must make it to New York to collect his winnings.
