The orginal H.B. Halicki chase movie not the remake by Cage and co.

This movie is mostly about a car chase and seeing how many cars can be wrecked in as shorta time as possible.
There was almost 1 car wrecked for every minute of run time. The stunts where mostly done in real time with the real cars being smashed including several cars at the cadillac dealership that where not supposed to be smahed which had to be bought by Halicki.

About the only nit I saw was I noticed the cable pulling the garbage truck over.

R, have you accessed the Easter Egg on the DVD which plays the movie in 1 minute...?

No I haven't. See I don't own these movies one of the mechanics does and he owns the orginal VHS video tape so *shrug* I don't know if I will get the DVD of it or not because I found out that the DVD remastered all the engine and crash sounds and I kinda like the way those old big blocks sound.

I just saw this on speed channel and they where advertising a special directors cut of the movie remastered and enhanced. It comes with a pair of liscence plate brackets for motorcycles and a coupon you can send away for two car sized plate brackets.

So thats pretty cool.
