A really fun 60’s AIP stock car racing drive-in item
Thunder Alley Terminally blah 50’s pop singer teen scream Fabian gives a thoroughly bland and stiff performance as Tommy Callahan, a proud, earnest, virtuous ace stock car driver whose unfortunate tendency to black out whenever he gets boxed in causes a massive lethal pile-up that leaves two drivers dead. Tommy gets suspended indefinitely from the pro racing circuit by hard-nosed NASCAR bigwig Stanley Adams. Tommy, disgraced and desperate for work, humbly accepts a degrading gig as a stunt daredevil driver in a two-bit thrill circus outfit owned by shameless skinflint opportunistic con man hustler Pete (a hearty turn by stand-up comic Jan Murray). Naturally, Tommy shows cocky eager beaver protégé Eddie (amiable Warren Berlinger) the ropes and falls in love with Pete’s feisty, hot-tempered daughter (a surprisingly lively and hence more tolerable than usual Annnette Funicello). Of course, this latter development doesn’t go over well with Tommy’s current main squeeze, the extremely jealous and possessive racetrack groupie hottie Annie (the always enticing, attractively slender blonde spitfire Diane McBain, who heats up the screen with her customary fiery aplomb).
Director Richard Rush, whose other 60’s exploitation feature credits include the terrific hippie dope acidhead treat “Psych-Out” and the killer biker pictures “Hell’s Angels on Wheels” and “The Savage Seven,” jazzes up the standard-issue story by keeping the pace galloping along at a brisk clip and offering up a lot of snazzy visual flourishes. Monroe Askins’ funky cinematography pulls out the wondrously garish psychedelic 60’s stylistic stops: solarization, super-impositions, wipes, shaky hand-held camera-work, and dizzying segueways all shot in gloriously bright and vibrant Pathecolor. Kudos also to the groovy score, which has sinewy drums laying down a primordial pounding beat while fuzzed-out guitars rip-riff up a crackling sonic storm. Sy Salkowitz’s predictable, but compact and serviceable script scrupulously covers all the necessary audience pleasing bases: bang-up peel out and crash’em demolition derby-style racetrack action (the authentically grainy racetrack newsreel footage especially smokes), fiercely going at each other’s throats bitter rivalries, good-lookin’ well-endowed girls in tight sweaters, crazy swingin’ kids frenetically frugging away at regular intervals, a rowdy barroom brawl, and, in the movie’s roll-over-wacky hedonistic highlight, a wild, delightfully raucous and unruly let it all hang out somethin’ nutty sex’n’booze’n’dancing’n’stripping all-night rockin’ party sequence. Only Fabian’s underwhelming stale whitebread square presence and Annette briefly belting out this hideously saccharine slushy mush love ballad detract a little from the otherwise solid and on the money fun.
Such an enjoyable film. Love the story, the glamour, the costumes plus some very funny & sweet moments. Back when women were so feminine in their dress & manner.
This was a Chinese DVD. The case was broken and the DVDs were mislabelled, however the picture quality was very good and the show Godless was absolutely amazing. Overall worth it.
Three stars for the movie only. In spite of having leading actors, I was quite
disappointed with the overall movie. Good western movies are quite a
rarity nowadays.
As for the service, Mr. Brady has always delivered and is a pleasure to talk to.
Thanks
