The Dirt Gang (1972)

Absolutely brilliant

The acting in this movie is really good.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

"God help the fuzz that flashes a badge on...THE DIRT GANG", yelled the ad mat, which depicted a motorcycle gang member on a motocross bike roaring over the screaming head of a highway patrolman. Unfortunately, the "fuzz" who flashed a badge at this gang would probably have a good laugh.This is not a good movie, despite the fact that there is reasonably graphic rape of local lasses and actresses, and a film set gets trashed bad by these overacting delinquents."They take you where 'Hells Angels' fear to tread," the advertising continued, creating audience expectations this crap could never meet. In its favor, the gang members are pretty reprehensible and their attitude towards women is more than slightly nasty.Not worth crossing mountains and streams to track down, but a good late night bet with pizza and a beer.

I agree that this flick barely warrants removing it from the reel canister, but nowadays we have videotape and DVDs. I picked this one up to add to my collection of "biker" films and it fits the bill. The main focus of the movie is motorcycle riding rebels who just want to tear up the town (or in this case, movie set). The interesting thing is that they aren't riding the typical choppers and wearing cut-off denim jackets. No, it's dirt bikes, helmets and leather pants for these guys. Typical plot, typical amateur acting and typical 70's cinematography. But, a film that biker film addicts will enjoy. Watch for the two character actors you have seen a hundred times before.

This had to be the WORST lowlife biker film of ALL TIME! I love it!!!! I saw it one night on Speed Channel (the Speedvision). Some midnight show I think. All I remember is that is was a bunch of outlaw bikers on motocross bikes...MOTOCROSS BIKES!!!! I mean what kind of outlaw biker rides a Husqvarna? I also recall that it was very graphic sexually, which makes it even cheezier. These guys pitched a tent in the desert and raped women, I think? This may be the singular worst film ever made. That is why is must be released ASAP. Please release this on DVD so I can have a bad movie night party!

I saw this piece of junk at a drive-in (now storage sheds) back when I was 14 years old. I had to hide in the back floorboard of my brother's car. Anyhow, what a great website IMDB is to not only LIST this movie, but to actually have user votes and comments! I mean not more than 500 people could have even WATCHED this horrible thing, ferpetessake.Thanks, guys, and keep up the good work!
