Los guerreros del asfalto

We found this movie w/ Random Movie Decider & watched it via an uploaded VHS version on Youtube. I didn't expect much from a biker movie, let alone one w/ a limited budget but what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be!

The person who wrote the script was an actual biker. Yeah, it's full of cliches, cringe moments, and a cheesy af soundtrack, but if u stumble across it, give it a shot. It shows Biker Communities and their culture. They might be tough, loud and intimidating, but don't judge a book by its cover. These Bikers are part of a brotherhood. A family. They care about each other. The main character's back story is a heartbreaker, and the gang embraces and supports him. Bad things could happen without his fellow bikers.

The story is simple. Bikers Bone & Bear are called upon to help their friend Iron Butt fend off a cartoonish bad guy wanting to take over his land. It's not just any land. It's got a beautiful marsh for a backyard. Unfortunately, Ironbutt, owes $8000 in taxes. Bone & Bear decide to throw a Bike Run to raise money for Ironbutt while the bad guys try to foil their plans. That's pretty much it.

This could have been a terrible movie, but the heartfelt friendship and loyalty between Bone, Bear & Ironbutt, as well as the chemistry between the male & female leads saves it from mediocrity. Their love story is sweet, sexy, & believable. Bikers are portrayed as positive members of the community, as opposed to Harley riding troublemakers. Sadly, the fight scenes remind me of a lesser Roadhouse. Rough & tumble punching, kicking bad guys into the air and onto tables etc. You've seen it before but that doesn't stop the film from being enjoyable.

It's not a great by any measure, but it's better than u think. Worth seeking out. I haven't seen a lot of biker movies but i bet this is one of the better ones. It deserves its status as a cult movie and I'm glad I was able to find it. 6/10.

I have been on a business trip to India in 2007 when I saw this movie on HBO. As a biker I was immediately thrilled by this movie.

Back in Germany I tried to get a DVD but there was nothing available. Somehow disappointed I started a last attempt and I got a VHS in the US.

In the meantime I have installed a regular "movie evening" with my bro's starting to have a barbecue. After having enjoyed dinner we are all watching this film.

Thanks for this really great biker movie - it shows the attitude towards life a biker should have. I love it!

I really got caught in this movie, it has such a great explaining of the "Biker Culture" as it is and not for people to confuse with Biker gangs like HA or Bandidos. I'm into the biker culture so I know, the movie has a good Love story to it too. I can only say it's worth seeing!!!... Unfortunatly I have a real hard time to get a hold of the movie here in Sweden though... I really need to get a hold of an own copy of it... Rent it or Buy it, it really great!

A very underappreciated independent film from the early 1990's. Although at times it can feel like a made for TV movie, I love this film with all my heart.

(Andrew Divoff) stars as Bone, a lone biker who doesn't want roots anywhere. And with his biker buddy Bear tries to help their friend Ironbutt played by (James Gammon) save his wetlands from growing corporations.

The acting can get kind of cheesy at times, but the story is good and entertaining. The small town hates the bikers, but they won't leave until they've helped their friend. They even throw in a little love story to boot. A great film to check out.

I caught this on cable and--although I have no connection to bikers whatsoever--I ended up not turning the channel and watching the whole thing through. It's definitely what you'd call a genre piece but it's a lot more enjoyable than you'd imagine. If you can take it as just a cool piece of Americana of a certain time and place, you'll have fun.

The story begins in Sturgis, to introduce the characters and their culture, but quickly moves to the South for the majority of the plot. Our hero, Bone, must help an old friend raise money to save his small plot of family land--which happens to be on beautiful Southern wetlands--from the control of developers. He meets dangers and love along the way, as well as gaining an appreciation for the environment and a new sense of home. The characters are pretty much what you'd expect (i.e., not models of complexity a la French New Wave), but the biker characters are actually really appealing and attractively acted.

Also, the town being portrayed is spelled Beaufort (South Carolina), to be irritatingly pedantic and add a slight correction to the summaries above.
