Death Race 2000 is better than Death Race. Why? More Carradine.

The release of Death Race, which is loosely based on Roger Corman's Death Race 2000, prompted me to rewatch the original.

Wow. Still one of the funniest movies (dark, yes, but still funny) made during the heyday of exploitation movies. The cars are so are almost enough to make this a worthwhile viewing experience.

And Sylvester Stallone makes a way better Machine Gun Joe than Tyrese does. I did like Mr. Gisbon in Waist Deep, though.
