THE GAMES… THE ROMANCE… THE SPIRIT… CAMELOT IS A STATE OF MIND.
A medieval reenactment troupe struggles to maintain its family-like dynamic amid pressure from local authorities, interest from talent agents, and their “King’s” delusions of grandeur.
An excellent “knights jousting on motorcycles” -flick from the father of the modern zombie movie, George A. Romero. It’s less pulpy fun and more social commentary drama than you might expect from a b-movie.
It’s George Romero. Dawn of Dead 1978 was zombies in a mall. His thing was social commentary in a B movie format.
It’s true!
This is available to me on Kanopy.com through my public library. Added it to my watchlist.
Holy shit Ed Harris?! I gotta see this
Yep! …and (makeup/FX God) Tom Savini, Ken Foree (Dawn of the Dead), John Amplas (from Romero’s very underappreciated vampire movie, Martin), Patricia Tallman (Babylon 5), and many more. Knightriders is a real who’s who when it comes to Romero’s Pittsburgh crew/family.
And my man is riding a Honda CBX on the poster. I approve wholeheartedly of this.
That actually is the only reason I clicked on the link. The CBX seemed too perfect.
I loved this movie as a kid. I even made a knight’s shield out of cardboard to mount on the handles of my bike. Peak nerd shit.
Now streaming on Tubi
I don’t know much about engines but is that a v12 on the motorcycle in the poster? Seems a bit much. Also like your leg could hit the engine and burn it to all hell.
Looks like an inline 6. I think Honda actually made one in the 80s.
Great bike:
Watched it some time ago based on the poster. Didn’t read up, expected spaghetti post apo. It was quite the surprise and actually a really good movie.
hey bb what them thighs do
