Title: RACE WITH THE DEVIL-AT LAST
Review: Jack Starrett is the key here. One of the most exceptional of B movie directors, and sometimes more-RACE is a most amazing ride. Originally released by Fox in widescreen-RACE is full of those great tricks of the trade--especially taking a mundane subject like a trailer/camper trip into the realms of the absurd and horrible. In the manner of method and manner--RACE treds the same territory as HILLS HAVE EYES but with more cinematic flair. Never available in digital format (nope-no laser disc)--RACE is an amazing addition to the pantheon of horror and witchcraft. It works beautifully. One can only ask where is Starrett in our horror universe? He is so under repped in dvd releases. Perhaps Anchor Bay will remedy. Thank God he is finally here with rattlesnakes, chases, bizarre characters, and an ending that kills optimism in this release.
