TRAILER - RACE WITH THE DEVIL (1975)



So what is one to do if you find yourself being chased by a devil cult in an army of souped-up vehicles...why you try and outrace them in a Winnebago, that's what! At least that's what Peter Fonda, Warren Oats, Loretta Swit and Lara Parker are forced to do after they witness a satanic ritual murder during a road trip vacation.

Wild little thriller that seems to have slipped under the radar over the years for both horror fans and car chase enthusiasts alike. Well worth a look for fans of both genres. The climatic chase where the cultists commit a full scale attack on the careening Winnebago predates THE ROAD WARRIOR and its similar tanker chase by seven years.
