Critics Consensus

Hell Ride misses out on the rusting zeitgeist of the biker genre, sucking the glee from a saucy premise.

2.5/4

The dialog is clever, nutty and syncopated, with a soundtrack -- of the "C.C. Rider" vein -- which ain't half-bad, either.

It's a claustrophobic dud, full of ludicrously purple tough-guy dialogue and lip-smacking vamps in bikinis (how hot!), with so much monotonous hip violence there's scarcely room for anything else.

Maybe only once every six months am I in the mood for jokey sadism, but this struck me as the right picture for the right time.

2/10

A messy homage that borrows (or steals) heavily in its visuals, music, camerawork, and timeline-hopping storytelling.

Hell Ride is a smoldering yet completely dull wreck of a movie.

It is a ripoff/ fantasy of when bikers gangs truly started. Doesn’t seem to have any impact on established old biker culture. The plot is all over the place as well.

I am a biker, and have watched this film multiple time's. I think that this is a biker's film through and through, and recommend it for also having a good story backed by a good cast.

Larry Bishop was an actual veteran of these films, he starred in several of them, so how is it possible he could’ve made such a disaster of a movie? No clue. Quentin was the executive producer so why the hell didn’t he help flesh out the film. Dennis Hopper and David Carradine were cool but seriously that was trash. I wish he made the sequel because as a director, I would want a chance at redemption, and a chance to distance myself from this. I guess if you’re a biker you get pumped up by all the gratuitous violence and overall corny behavior from the characters. So good for you guys I guess. I will say the women were pretty hot. 1/5 stars.

I can't believe I watched this entire movie. It was bad, terrible, a complete waste of time.

Some funny dialog and period cycles make this mildly amusing.
