"In the year 2000, hit and run driving is no longer a felony. It's the national sport!"

Overview

In a boorish future, the government sponsors a popular, but bloody, cross-country race in which points are scored by mowing down pedestrians. Five teams, each comprised of a male and female, compete using cars equipped with deadly weapons. Frankenstein, the mysterious returning champion, has become America's hero, but this time he has a passenger from the underground resistance.

If anyone ever asks you what a "Cult Classic" is, you can just tell them to Google it-- I mean, show them this film. _Death Race 2000_ is great 1970's cheese with a ripper of a Stalone role thrown in for good measure. _Final rating:★★★ - I personally recommend you give it a go._
