Review by Uriah43

Wild Ones on Wheels

5/10

An Okay, Grade-B, Hot Rod Movie

This film essentially begins with a man by the name of "Duke Walker" (Sydney Mason) about to be released from prison after serving twelve years for a robbery. Since the money (about $250,000) was never found a number of people think that Duke hid it somewhere. To that effect, one particular group led by a man named "King Tut" (Edmund Tontini), decide to stakeout a diner where Duke's wife "Hazel" (Francine York) works on the assumption that it will be the first place Duke visits once he's release from prison. Hazel, in the meantime, has been having an affair with another young man named "Bill James" (Robert Blair) who has also developed an interest in the money as well. Be that as it may, when Duke does show up, both he and Hazel are kidnapped by King Tut who soon demonstrates that he is willing to do whatever it takes to get his hand on the stolen loot. Now, rather than reveal any more, I will just say that this was an okay "hot rod film" in which the director (Rudolph Cusumano) managed to take good advantage of the desert setting to minimize the overall costs of production. Likewise, although the acting wasn't great, it was equally sufficient for the task at hand as well with the best performances probably being turned in by Francine York and Robert Blair. Admittedly, this film is quite dated but for a grade-B film of this nature it wasn't too bad and I have rated it accordingly. Average.
