22.3.11
death race (2007)
"No one is perfect in this world."
2012, the American economy has collapsed, and the government attempts to pascify the populus with death race. A road race where prisoners are enticed to take part by the temptation of their freedom, but where losers die. This is television gold, overseen by the prison warden. But she can and does change the rules to suit her agenda, and one thing she doesn't want is for the most popular driver Frankenstein (Jason Statham) to win another race and be set free.
A re-visioning of the AIP classic, updated for the modern world of blood sports. Where the original had a level of camp fun, this is a by the numbers actioner.
