To me, this movie is perfection.

it is the rare 'crazy' movie that actually has something to say.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Distraught after the hooligans who killed his mother and sisters avoid conviction thanks to a heartless judge, a young rig driver designs a monster truck to enact revenge in this action film from Canada. The film gets off to a slow start with nearly half the duration elapsing before the trucker designs the machine, but the tension never ceases once it goes into action. The vehicle is a remarkable feat of imagination with flame throwers and a giant drill, plus the wheels of a tractor, and it is startling to watch it crush other cars (like a tank), break through walls and run people over. If all this sounds over-the-top, it is because it is, but no matter, such exaggerations fit in well with the film thematically, which is about a young man reacting in the most extreme way he knows to an adverse situation. Quality supporting turns (from Ned Beatty as the hooligans' father and Lawrence Dane as the protagonist's father) help matters too, and the film has a few acute things to say about the risks of working for scumbags - something that his father tells him is necessary, but something that also leads to the demise of half his family. The film may have worked better with the hooligans being fleshed out in further depth (they are pretty much interchangeable) but no doubt half of the film's audience will come from those in it for the truck, which is indeed great even if it only appears somewhat late.

This movie is cheesy and pretty bad. Not horrid bad, but cheesy enough for the MST3K gang to handle. If they were still making new episodes this would be a perfect film for them. They'd have to edit out the rape scene but other than that it be fine. Or get some friends together and have a home MST3king of it yourselves.

The story is simple. A bunch of redneck terrorize the streets of their town with their pick up. They accidentally kill a women with her two children. Her husband wants revenge, they kill him too. But the family prodigal son wants revenge too, he build a monstertruck, and he plants to kill the rednecks who murder his family. The rest of the movie is a mixt of bar fights, car chase and bigfoot carnage. The action scene are really weak and the acting is even worse. However, the characters are funny, we have a topless bar owner and his beer drinking redneck truck driver sons, a good father and his truck driver prodigal son. If you like trucks, beer, shotgun, topless dancers, trucks and bar fight you'll love this movie. If you don't, try to avoid Rolling Vengeance.

Hey--easy on the low-budge action movies. I saw this movie when I first got drunk--fun and fun to make fun of. It's a cheese-meister, but so much laughable dialogue, direction anyway.
