This is a new brand new entry on the Death Race Prequel movies.
This follows the original Frankenstein as he finishing up his last couples of races.
It this one a new bad guy, takes over the Death Race, and makes it
INTERNATIONAL. The race is now taken to 3rd world area. Which translate to
people driving around the desert for 2 hours? Seem the budget takes a hit every
movie but it some imaginative kills with a nice over the top bad guy. He chews
the scenery at pac man like proportions.
Frankenstein’s (always 1-2 races from escaping) has a run in with the
new owner who wants to keep him there for good, or kill him. He also adds
changes to the death race, like a collar the sends a missile after you if you
try to escape and having the battles in open areas. Some of the death scenes
pretty good, and it has a nice multiple cat fight scene in the middle. Not that
I go for just tawdry affair. Me I am enlighten...I just pointing it out for the
savages out there. It not like I pause, then rewind the scene 11 times. I am above
such things. Although the babes aren’t THAT babelicious as past movies and
there seem to be a lack of chemistry between the female and male leads. Also it is hardly any nudity. If you’re going
to do exploitation don’t pussyfoot around. There is missile chase scene that is
pretty good. But the blood is tone down and some of the areas uninspired. It
runs across the same desert multiple times and not as many memorable character
to go up against. It seems more like a made for TV sci-fi movie. A lot of that
has to do with budget though, but maybe they shouldn’t have aimed for an
international story then. That said one scene uses the area pretty well that
gets the bystanders and fans in on the action. And it is a key part of the
plan. The main bad guy while fun doesn’t have the punch as the villains from
the past movie. Although the ending is
pretty cool, and ties into the first movie well. It might be a good idea for
future movies. All and All B-
