Hell Ride is a raucous throwback to the days of the Sergio
Leone spaghetti western, with a heaping helping of testosterone-fueled
chopper action thrown into the mix. Writer/director Larry
Bishop takes on a third role as Pistolero, head honcho of
the Victors, a group of badass bikers who are out to avenge
the murder of one of their members at the hands of the 666ers,
a rival gang whose actions live up to their hellish moniker.
Along with his cohorts, the Gent (deviously portrayed by Michael
Madsen) and the mysterious Comanche (Eric Balfour), Pistolero
aims to take down the Deuce and Billy Wings, menacing leaders
of the 666ers, but a mutiny looms on the horizon when his
commitment to profit is questioned by a few of his fellow
Victors. An even larger story unravels when previously unknown
information about Comanche resurrects ghosts from Pistolero’s
past.
Although there is enough sex, violence, and all-out machismo
to keep grind-house fans firmly plastered to their seats,
Bishop’s take on the genre strays far from exploitation
as he weaves a twisting, multilayered tale of revenge, loyalty,
and brotherhood that is brought to life by a superb ensemble
cast, with memorable performances by Dennis Hopper, Vinnie
Jones, and David Carradine. In the words of Comanche, "The
road to hell is paved with anything but good intentions."
