James Cromwell, who began his career as Stretch Cunningham on ALL IN THE FAMILY, was perfect as Dudley Smith. Strange that none of Ellroy's other books in the series were not turned into movies.

Meh, it was OK but not a movie I'd watch again.

One of my favorites, that brushes the truth of the early LAPD.

In LA CONFIDENTIAL, the TV show DRAGNET was referred to sarcastically as BADGE OF HONOR. James Ellroy has an extreme dislike of Jack Webb because Webb used his show DRAGNET to white wash the corruption that was the LA police department at that time. In his newest book, PERFIDIA, Ellroy really drags Webb thru the coals.

I watched Interstellar after getting a new receiver and subwoofer. It's decent.

Wild. Do drugs, have sex, and then go hiking.

She does get the best line, about the art school's rejection of Hitler. "They should have accepted him".

I wish I had seen this on the big screen when it first came out. I've probably viewed it 10 times since the release on VHS/DVD. Great movie.

One of the zaniest most bizarre movies I've seen in awhile!
Riders Of The Storm-1988-Dennis Hopper, Michael J. Pollard, Eugene Lupinski.
Never heard of it until just two weeks ago.

What a warped movie that was. Kinda like a film noir feel but up in the sky

Hmmm, now I am intrigued. Far cry from Easy Rider!
Never heard of it. Might have to watch it. Is it worth a look? Strange enough to be good or just strange?

Well I guess it's really a matter of taste. If you like weird, 'B' off-the-wall movies you may enjoy it. If you ever enjoyed 'Moving Violations' with John Murray, or "Strange Brew' McKenzie brothers you may find this movie to be your forte'.
If you find those aforementioned films to be an insult to your intelligence than Riders is probably going to be a big disappointment for you.
Riders is not a laugh a minute type movie, but IMO it's goofy, satirical material and entertaining enough to keep you interested for the duration of the film.
Afterwards you sorta ask yourself with a smile on your face while scratching your head 'What did I just watch?!' :scratch2:
But in a good way.....
