Following the "World Crash of '79," the U.S. government, in an effort to entertain the citizenry, created the Transcontinental Road Race, a deadly and violent sport where drivers speed across the country and accumulate bonus points for striking bystanders and spectators. Based on Ib Melchior’ short story "The Racer," this action-packed sci-fi satire from the Corman Studios stars David Carradine, Sylvester Stallone, Mary Woronov, Simone Griffeth, and Martin Kove; directed by Paul Bartel. 78 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital mono.
