In this brutal yet cartoonish view of the near future, human life is cheap, resistance is futile, and the nation’s favorite pastime is watching a ghoulish sport called “The Death Race,” where speedracers tear cross-country scoring points for killing pedestrians. One of Roger Corman’s most notorious productions, this instant cult classic takes America’s obsession with violence to an outrageous extreme.
