Death Race 2000 (1975)
Het jaar 2000. The Trans-Atlantic Road Race. Een happening van de eerste orde, en elk jaar georganiseerd door de overheid. Volkshelden als Nero the Hero, MachineGun Joe en Frankenstein racen in gevaarlijk uitgedoste auto's door Amerika, waarbij ze punten kunnen scoren door willekeurige voorbijgangers overhoop te rijden. Bejaarden en kleine kinderen leveren dan overigens de meeste punten op... Er is echter een verzetsbeweging ontstaan die de race wil stoppen...
