Death Race 2000
I had the pleasure of watching “Death Race 2000″ not long ago. I love the begining scenes of David Carradine walking to his car, he does this great Boris Karloff as Frankenstein impression of shooing reporters out of his way. In a remarkable display of chutzpah, Carradine’s character is of course, also named Frankenstein. Death Race is the post-everything movie that people are trying to make today without success, no matter how much money they throw around. Most directors today probably couldn’t get lunch catered for what Corman spent on this entire film. Truly a classic.
