Gladiadores do Inferno

This movie essentially begins with a small group of bikers known as the Hell Riders being evicted from a larger motorcycle gang and being forced to fend for themselves. It's at this time that they come upon an attractive lady from Las Vegas named "Claire Delaney" (Tina Louise) who just happens to have car trouble on a deserted stretch of road. Although they beat her, she manages to escape to a nearby town where she manages to find a sympathetic doctor named "Dave" (Adam West). However, the sheriff in this town has no interest in upholding justice and refuses to become involved. This decision eventually results in tragic consequences when the motorcycle gang rides in. Now what initially drew my interest in this movie was the fact that it featured both Tina Louise and Adam West. Unfortunately, although they both performed adequately enough, the extremely poor script and the lumbering direction provided by James Bryan resulted in a pretty bad movie overall. Accordingly, I rate this movie as below average.

This has to be the worst, and I mean worst biker movie ever made! And that's saying a lot because the line of stinkers is long and smelly!

Now at least we know what happened to Ginger after she was rescued from Gilligan's Island! A frightened looking Tina Louise(she was probably afraid someone would see this mess!)is a stranded motorist who is tormented by the most repulsive motorcycle gang in film history. But, don't worry fans! Batman, I mean Adam West as a hick-town doctor comes to the rescue! Pow! Crush! Boom! Holy Toledo Batman!

The only good points of this "bomb" are some cute women, some laughable fight scenes, and the still "sexy" Tina Louise!

Just bought the VHS on this film for two bucks, Did I waste my money! Hey, I dig Adam "Batman" West and Tina "Giligan's Island" Louise, but hello! This third rate production is a rehash of a dozen other biker films; crazed bunch of bikers psychos ride into a hick town, beat up everybody and everything, and then are defeated in the man by a dashing hero. Adam West looks the part as a hero, but he's missing cape, and his Batman uniform. Sorry, just isn't the same. Tina L. looks really nervous and frightened the whole show, but at least we know what happened to "Ginger" once she was rescued from the island...LOL! The bikers are a motley group, and known of them ever acted again or at least shouldn't have. Hell Riders is Hell to Watch!

If you are bored and have an hour and a half to kill, you could do worse, but, you would really have to try. It's good for a couple of laughs, but overall, it's pretty generic.

How sad to see the beautiful and talented Tina Louise reduced to making this horrible excuse for a film. Tina still looked fit and attractive, but for some reason seems truly frightened. I can understand her fear; fearing that this 3rd rate stinker would somehow be released to the general public. Also, I'm a fan of the likable Adam West. Again, as with Tina, Adam looks good and in great shape for a man his age. His acting here is passable, but the script is so bad, that it's difficult to even listen to the dialog.

The movie is a rip-off of the classic Brando biker flick, The Wild Ones; out-law biker gang is out-of-control in a small hick-town. The bikers here look like a motley group and I sure wouldn't want them to date my sister. The acting is stiff and wooden, and the story-plot is as old as sand. Hellriders is hell to watch!
