I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

My brother told me about "Race With the Devil" many years ago after he had seen some of it on a late night T.V showing. The way the film was described to me, made me curious in wanting to see it. I had to wait a while for the film to be shown again as obtaining it on video was going to be hard. BBC 2 eventually showed "Race With the Devil" in 1997 at about midnight. I was quite impressed with the final results. Warren Oates is the best actor in the film - he is most under-rated - but the other main cast members are OK. The film has a pretty good atmosphere and is well paced with a fair bit of incident. Nothing is quite what it seems at first glance. The ending comes after quite a build-up and I found it to be all the more shocking. This wasn't the kind of film that was expected to be a box office success but it is still a neat little film.

Two couples vacationing together in a new Vogue R.V. from Texas to Aspen, Colorado are terrorized after they witness a murder during a Satanic ritual.Some of the decisions made by the characters in this film defy all reason. The bad driving, the ritual sacrifice within view of others campers... and some just silly mistakes. But all the silly plot is made up for by the action, chases and explosions. This is sort of like "Duel" in an RV.The most interesting thing is how the film starts with dirt bikes and you quickly assume the "race" must involve the dirt bikes. And yet, not even halfway in, the bikes are destroyed and serve no real point to the plot. A tank of oil (or gasoline) does, though.

Race with the Devil is one of those anxiety provoking and unnerving films that takes place on Texas highways in the 70's. These films have a very straightforward and simple story and script and almost no gore. There is a thread of innocence running through them and even though they are low budget they are enjoyable to watch.I think of Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry and The Great Texas Dynamite Chase which I believe were made around the same time although the script and acting here are better. Most of the time this film holds up well. The chase scenes of course are a bit dated and tame by today's standards but there are some truly unsettling if predictable scenes in this film. The film does have a slight movie-of-the-week feel to it but the chemistry between the actors and the story I believe will hold a person's interest and I think most will find it entertaining. It's fun to see these films now. They really did a good job with this stuff before CGI.

I'm very pleased with this little occult road-movie classic from the 70's. It's fun and moves at a decent pace. Of course you have to wait for more than an hour before the racing starts, but the climactic last 20 minutes make up for it. Two couples on a holiday with their mobile home are witness to a satanic ritual killing during one night. Naturally, the local authorities have some difficulties believing all this, and soon the two couples find themselves being harassed and eventually chased by several cult-members. I liked the sense of paranoia this film has. Just about everyone in this movie could be a satanic cult-member. I liked the ending too. And Peter Fonda was cool as always. This time he used the word "terrific" a lot as an expletive, instead of "groovy".
