Mad Max (1979)

Poster for Mad Max

When the gangs take over the highway... ...Remember he's on your side.

In the ravaged near-future, a savage motorcycle gang rules the road. Terrorizing innocent civilians while tearing up the streets, the ruthless gang laughs in the face of a police force hell-bent on stopping them.
