The most bizarre thing you'll see...
I remember this from 1971 Drive In days.....finally got it from Amazon at a discounted price. Is it a biker flick, exploitation, horror, grindhouse or all of the above. It's funny that so many pics like this got made back in the schlock days of movie making. Kind of miss it.

This is the one that'll fill you with joy
I remember it. Saw it at the Drive In. Probably with Lewis Hall. They only change into Werewolves at the very end. They come up over that hill on their choppers shot with a long lens being handled by Vilmos Zsigmond
Oops I'm wrong. It was a long lens shot but it wasn't Zsigmond.
Looking at the poster, you can just hear the Producer saying, "Yeah, that's good--but we need a snake--and the girl should be holding a skull."
I don't know if I'm man enough to watch this sort of thing.
The most violent it gets is old cowboy stuntmen having the exact same choreographed fights they used to have for TV shows. Lots of padding with motorcycles going from place to place. Characters too unsympathetic to care about are the main hurdle to get over in watching any biker movie. The have to be colorful vs likeable.
Stressful challenge for the real actors was AIP biker flicks usually mixed real bikers into the cast.
Oh, they still make these sorts of movies and you can find them on SyFy on Saturday nights.
no this from 1971
I know, I was just pointing out that there is still shlocky cinema being produced, just that it's stuff like Mansqito and Sharktopus on SyFy.
