Death Race

[Casual]

In 2012, the United States economy collapses and life for everyone is not the same. Once a NASCAR champion, Jensen Ames, (Jason Statham), hits rock bottom and spent several years in prison. His life was improving and changing for the better after meeting and marrying Suzy (Janaya Stephens) and having a baby girl. Then the steel mill closes, and he loses his job. But that was not the worst thing to happen to Jenson that day. Suzy is brutally murdered, and he is framed for her murder. Jenson is sent to Terminal Island, the worst and toughest for-profit prison in the country run by Warden Hennessey (Joan Allen). She has created the country's most popular pay-per-view sport, a kill-or-be-killed car race where the inmates race to win their freedom from prison after 5 wins. Every inmate driver is driving a monster car that they built which is loaded with machine guns, missiles, flamethrowers, napalm, and no rules. Warden Hennessey convinces Jensen to secretly take the place of the late 4-time superstar winner, Frankenstein, and wear his metallic mask in the race. If Jensen wins just one race, he can go home to his baby daughter. To get to the finish line, Jensen must kill his competition before they kill him. Douglas Young (the-movie-guy.

Watch the 1975 original - Death Race 2000
Sylvester Stallone's in it as is David Carradine, and it's one of my favourite movies. It's a bit like 1984 but in a motorsport form.

Indeed. Hollywood cannot make any good out of a cult classic, no matter what. Absurdly enoough, a remake of Troll is on the horizon.

Shame they don't care about making a good film, just money. Death Race lacked the comedy of the original which really annoyed me, if you don't want to think when watching a film you may enjoy this but I certainly didn't.
