Blood Drive

Indeed this series was a niche piece so probably didn't generate the necessary profit to continue.

But every second of the episodes was good entertainment. Amazing visuals, good acting. I'm sad it's over.

Everyone who knows anything about food and nutrition will tell you how bad chili cheese dogs are. But some people, like myself, just love them, and continue consuming them no matter how unhealthy!

It is pretty funny reading reviews from people that talk about how awful and trashy this is, sort of like amateur restaurant critics evaluating a chili cheese dog from a street cart using Michelin standards. Yeah, it gets no stars. But it's still pretty damn satisfying, if you like that kind of thing!

You don't watch a series like this expecting to see Breaking Bad or The Wire. You've got to compare it to other chili cheese dogs, not to truffles and foie gras at the French Laundry. And if you are comparing this show to things like Death Race 2000, it does pretty well.

Fresh and spoiler free.

Personally I hate grind house. However as some of these reviews illustrate, this is the type of show that is ridiculously needed right now. Something lewd, offensive, stupid, and just plain dumb fun. I gave it a shot expecting it to be dumb and groan worthy, and wanting to see just how awful and lame it was. What I got was a feast for the senses and synapses.

This world is entirely too uptight. This is exactly what needs to be on air right now. Something that pushes boundaries and riles up the sheep.

Sure it is not what it is proudly ripping off, and that is a good thing. Content like this does not hold up well because by its nature its satirical of the modern age and the nearly half century old 40+ yr old inspiration is functionally unwatchable today because it is like watching a preschool version of itself. This is a modernization of it and is not intended for mass market appeal like the doomed to failure Anderson film.

Its not perfect by any measure, but in this ludicrous terrified and twitching PC snowflake world we live in, This is exactly the flamethrower we need. Particularly enjoy the soundtrack thus far and I sincerely hope that they keep it at this level or better.

Its all about the grandeur and spectacle. This is the Romans at the Colosseum feeding Christians to the lions. You have choices. Either cheer along, or be the next to be chucked in. You are not entitled to an apology if you are not entertained from those of us who are.

Wow, I'm already in love in the middle of the pilot. Anyone bitching about this being the "lowest point of television, yadda-yadda..." has clearly no f---ing clue what a grindhouse flick is. Basically this show is the group sex lovechild of Carmageddon, Fast&Furious, Evil dead, Mad Max, '80s buddy-cop movies, Vampire the Masquerade LARP, Judge Dredd and literally everything Rob Zombie ever made. It's an over the top caricature of a distopia, and it doesn't want to be more than that. But AT that, it excels. Hear me out. The basics of the genere are there: 35mm/VHS quality, gore, overacting, etc. But the subtle stuff is where it all comes together: the music, camera, atmosphere is remarkably well done. So if you've ever seen a grindhouse flick, and thought "F--k, It's dumb, hilarious and awesome at the same time", you will love Blood drive. And that scene where the race starts, and Skillet's "Back from the dead" starts to play... I had to rewind it three times, because it's f---ing magnificent.

If Mad Max and Death Race had a baby, this show would be it. This first episode had it all and then some and surely left me wanting more. If only more shows on TV were this exciting. I love all the characters being introduced, especially Slink :) he's worth watching the show just him alone. If you're a fan of Mad Max or even if you're not, I definitely think this show is a must see, brings a whole new meaning to the term, the daily grind!
