The Rebel Rousers (1970)
Filmed in 1967 and released after the success of Easy Rider, this low-budget biker flick features quite a cast: old pro Cameron Mitchell, new star Jack Nicholson, Bruce Dern, Diane Ladd (again), and Harry Dean Stanton. They’re all better known for better work (even better biker flicks), but they seem to be having one helluva time here. The bikers take over a town and have a drag race to see who’s going to spend the night with an architect’s pregnant girlfriend. They don’t make ‘em like that anymore. Suggested musical accompaniment: crank the Duane Eddy.

Quote of Note
“With the unbridled passion of men possessed, they blasted their way through all opposition in a campaign of sexual self-indulgence that left nothing but burned-out shells of humanity strewn in their path.”
—Narrator, trailer for The Rebel Rousers (1970)
