gilligan1965 Ever since my Dad began 'blasting' the 'vinyl album' of "The Wild Angels Vol.2" back in the early 1970s when I was a child; and, after I began sneaking that album into my room when he was at work; I began to relate this Rock-N-Roll movie-music I love to this day (POWER-CHORD, ASS-KICKING ROCK-N-ROLL) to what sounded to me as if Keith Richards, Ray Davies, Peter Townshend, got together with Duane Eddy, and, some others, and, created "Magical Movie Kick-Ass Rock-N-Roll" for 'Biker exploitation movies!' HOWEVER...IT WAS "MIKE CURB"...ALL BY HIMSELF! The Greatest Rock-N-Roll Movie-Star Musician whom 'NO ONE' has ever even heard of!?!?"Easy Rider" is a classic...NO DOUBT, and, it has original music by Rock-N-Roll stars of the day! But, movies like "Devil's Angels;" "The Wild Angels;" "The Glory Stompers;" "Hells Angels On Wheels;" "The Born Losers;" etc...and, even the Clint Eastwood classic "Kelly's Heroes," had music by Mike Curb (at this time, The Mike Curb Congregation)...and, it's all GREAT MUSIC! These 'biker movies' were an 'institution,' just as the 'beach party' movies with Annette Funicello (BEAUTIFUL LADY) and Frankie Avilon were an institution. These biker movies were GREAT 'Drive-In' movies that kept your attention when you weren't fondling your date. These biker movies represented the time in which they were made; they had GREAT MUSIC (thanks mainly to Mike Curb); and, in many ways, they were fun to watch.They never intended to become Academy Award Winners, but, they were good and they kept your attention at the Drive-In! :) God...I miss the Drive-In Theaters SO VERY MUCH! :(
gavin6942 An exiled band of Hell's Angels strike a bargain with the Sheriff of a local town, let them stay and the town is safe. But a local girl strays into their lair and sparks off a full scale Angel war.Nothing like a good old Arkoff-Nicholson-Corman production featuring bikers who are sick of "the Man" and want to fight, camp under the stars, and get crazy. Not a bad thing, but not really much in the way of originality here, either. I mean, after all, this was cashing in on their previous film, "Wild Angels", which was cashing in on the Hell's Angels' notoriety (and apparently the AIP guys ran into legal trouble for trying to put the Angels name in the movies... but who knows?) Now, besides the three guys mentioned above, we must mention the director: Daniel Haller. Probably not as well known as those guys, but he was the set designer for the AIP Poe films, so he was one of the family.I guess the film grossed $4 million, which is not bad for a low-budget flick with no big names -- with all due respect to John Cassavetes (who horror fans know from "Rosemary's Baby") and Mimsy Farmer (who worked with Italian horror masters Argento, Fulci and Deodato).
Michael O'Keefe Daniel Haller directs this campy low-budget biker film produced by Roger Corman. The biker gang The Skulls, are on the move after one of the members, Gage(Buck Taylor), accidentally kills a man stopped road side by a traffic cop. The morally conflicted gang leader Cody(John Cassavetes), makes the decision to move an already decimated gang to a newer "home". The rebellious followers are hard to keep in check; always wanting to raise havoc. On the way to a mythical "hole in the wall" hideaway, the riders look for a place to lodge and find a small town having a carnival. When barging in on a beauty contest some of the gang members claim to be insulted and going against Cody's orders decide to terrorize the little community with aid from another gang as payback for the citizens that offended them. Roaring cycles, the shimmy of dancing bottoms in bikinis and the soundtrack of fuzzy, twangy surf guitars...makes for terrific 1960s "drive-in" fare. The cast also features: Mimsy Farmer, Beverly Adams, Marc Cavell, Leo Gordon, Russ Bender, Buck Kartalian and Nai Bonet. There is some humor inside the very bad acting; and it appears Cassavetes took the budget and ran.
johnc2141 In the late 1960's biker movies were abundant,paving the way for the notorious ultimate biker flock;easy rider.devils angels is an entertaining biker flick with the late great John Cassavettes as the leader of the skulls,a motorcycle gang that after a hit and run accident with a motorist,are forced to flee in search of another town. of course the leader is at odds with some members of his own gang.they do terrorize another small town and the townspeople over rule the local sheriff to no avail,all hell breaks loose as the skulls take a violent turn.Roger Corman produced this film during his last days at American international pictures,the next film the trip was his last for American international pictures,after producers Sam Arkoff and James H Nicholson tampered with his ending on that movie,after that Corman branched out on his own with New World Pictures.well devils angels is an interesting biker flick.Cassavettes went on to star in rosemary's baby for directer Roman Polanski.i did enjoy this film,when i know Roger Corman is involved i know it will be an entertaining film,I'm giving the devils angels 7 out of 10.
