At last, a DVD release!  Now where the heck is DIRTY MARY, CRAZY LARRY?

No doubt, I'll pick this one up on DVD when released.  By far one of the absolute best car chase films of all time.  Great Stuff!

I look forward to a DVD release of this. I have the VHS of this that was at Wally World a few years ago. More people should be familiar with this flick than vague memories from late night TV, the pathetic TV movie remake from the 1990s, and Audioslave editing it into their "Show Me How To Live" video.

"Dirty Mary, Crazy Larry" would be nice too as far as Peter Fonda flicks go, but I'd really like to see DVD releases of "92 In The Shade" and "Fighting Mad" since I've always heard they were two of his better 70s flicks and I liked the book "92" is based on. Then again I'd like to see films of his like "High Ballin'" and "Killer Force".

Wow, Burgomaster I just looked it up. Is it the 1971 title?  If it is then it sounds like a real good one.

Scott, if you have never heard of it then go pick it up.  Definently a classic flick.

Car Chases

Drug Enduced Ferver

Blind Quasi-Psychic DJs

GREAT STUFF!

One of my all-time favourites. A fine counter-culture flick with car chases, hippies, good tunes, interesting characters, and loads of symbolism and philosophy. An intelligent movie packed with motor madness. Gotta like it.
