The Starlight takes you on a Hell Ride on Tuesday
On Tuesday (Aug. 5), the Starlight Drive-In will offer what feels like a tune-up for Labor Day Weekend’s Drive Invasion with “Hell Ride Rebellion.” The event features a screening of writer/director Larry Bishop’s neo-exploitation biker flick Hell Ride, starring Bishop, Michael Madsen, Vinnie Jones, David Carradine and Dennis Hopper. Plot? What plot?!? Quentin Taranton threw his name on the “Presents” title, so do with that what you will.
More fun comes from local rockers Thee Crucials and the Luchagors, along with a motorcycle/scooter showcase, a performance by Blast-Off Burlesque (whose Go West! show on Saturday at the Alcove was a hoot) and plenty of corndogs (natch).
The whole thing cranks up around 7:30 p.m., and the movie starts at 9:30 p.m. Here’s a look at the trailer. Vroom vroom!
