Killers on Wheels

A weekend pleasure trip to an isolated island off Hong Kong turns into hell on wheels (and sand) when a wild, unruly motorcycle gang winds up on the same ferry as Carrie and her guests Mei-Chuan and Chien-Chung. Landing on the island, where Carrie's boyfriend Sze Wei welcomes them to his father's lush waterfront villa, the bikers then commence to party, carouse, and race their Yamahas on the beach. Once a few of them hassle Carrie, and Sze Wei confronts them with a harpoon gun, inevitable tensions start to boil. With any police a day or so away, vandalism and cruel pranks soon turn into violent retribution, and suddenly, far worse. Who'll remain alive when all the dust settles?

It took 1970s Shaw ingenuity to update the delinquent biker movie template into a brutal genre hybrid reinforced with a stiff dose of Straw Dogs, and director Chih-Hung Kuei (Corpse Mania, The Boxer's Omen) was just the man for the job. Boasting a broad array of action stunts, casual sleaze, and a steadily escalating level of wanton destruction, this shocker boasts a screenplay by the prolific On Szeto (Killer Constable), and stars Yun Ling (Death Duel), Terry Liu (The Killer Snakes), and Danny Lee (City on Fire). Vinegar Syndrome Archive is revved and ready to bring you the Blu-ray premiere of this exploitation gem, newly scanned in 2K from its 35mm original camera negative.
