It's the near future in Los Angeles, and climate change keeps temperatures soaring, and water is as scarce as oil. Crime is so rampant that authorities only bother punishing cases of extreme violence, and even the city's last remaining good cop isn't immune from the chaos. Arthur Bailey's only hope for survival is to join dangerous femme fatale Grace on a twisted cross-country death race. The race's host is a vaudevillian nightmare, the drivers are homicidal deviants, and the last participant to arrive at each checkpoint has his or her head explode. Even the cars aren't typical gas-powered machines, as they run on human blood. When Bailey goes missing to take part in the race, his partner, Chris, leads an investigation to figure out what happened to him, and it quickly turns into the most deranged case of Chris' career.

There's plenty of cinema du carsploitation fun to be had with this gonzo drive-in throwback involving killer vehicles gobbling up unsuspecting victims. Go to Full Review Sarah Marshall The New Republic 06/26/2017
One of Blood Drive's most thought-provoking missteps comes from its determination to recreate the hallmarks of dystopian worlds, but without the context that summoned them forth to begin with. Go to Full Review Verne Gay Newsday 06/22/2017

It's go-for-broke enjoyable mayhem for those who like that sort of thing. Just be sure to wait to watch until the kids are in bed. Go to Full Review Noah Berlatsky The Verge 06/28/2017
Turn it on for a satisfying snicker as we all pick up our briefcases and beat each other to death. Go to Full Review Jesse Schedeen IGN Movies 06/22/2017
6/10
Between the barebones plot, the wooden main characters and the lack of good satire, there's just not enough here to really justify the 13-episode treatment. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

john b 06/22/2022 Cult classic, too bad they couldn't keep this one going. Too gory for most, very dark humor. If you can binge this series you're probably a serial killer. 7/10 See more 12/02/2019 BLOOD DRIVE is so brutal and horrible, it is exactly what TV needs. The best kind of grindhouse. See more 09/26/2019 Awesome show! Why do they always cancel the good stuff? See more Paul G 08/17/2019 absolutely awesome. See more 03/12/2018 No idea why this got cancelled. Was such a good show. See more 12/26/2017 Gratuitous violence, sex and an interesting setting. This material feels like it came straight from a comic book. Its perverseness kept me entertained and wanting more.
