Satan's Sadists (1969)

Witness director Al Adamson’s disturbing and socially significant cinematic portrait of a biker gang’s anti-social rampage! Motorcycle maniacs on wheels terorrize the southwest! After this sadistic gang wreaks havoc on the patrons of roadside diner, a waitress and ex-marine are the only surviving witnesses. The pulse-pounding suspense inscreases rapidly as the duo find themselves pursued through the desert by The Satans in a bloodthirsty chase. This seventies cult hit features chilling performances by Russ Tamblyn and Greydon Clark as "Acid."

Satan's Sadists

Typical of the genre! Lot's of action with a typical view of bikers in the 60's. January 8, 2008

Even people who have no sense of smell know this smells like s***

This is one horrible f***in' movie. It is one of the most boring, tepid, lame films I have ever endured. This is the kind of film that Tarantino and Rodriguez were paying homage to in their recent film Grindhouse. Why would they like trash like this? It's not entertaining, it's not fun, it's just stupid and ugly. There are some decent biker films out there (Savage Seven and Hell's Angels on Wheels are 2 examples), but this is just the bottom of the NYC sewer system. Save your time and money...

"By time I was 12 I was killin', killin' for Satan."

Despite what anybody says this movie sucks. Satan's Sadists, the world's most unthreatening motorcycle gang (all seven of `em), enter a remote roadside café and begin harassing the five people inside. Two bikers die in this skirmish one drowns in a toilet bowl and the other by a fatal hit to the face with a mirror (!). Three customers die, all shot. The two remaining victims run off into the desert. The Sadists abandon their bikers and chase them on foot, so much for a motorcycle movie.

Lots of talking takes place but the Sadists do find three females in the desert, get them on LSD and have a darkly shot snooze, I mean, love fest. One of the customers sneaks around and kills one bad guy by throwing a rattlesnake at him, another he stabs to death and another he pushes down a hill. The other two bikers managed by their own stupidity to kill themselves. Highly not recommended unless your looking for a good laugh.

Thanks to SATAN'S SADISTS being released within weeks of the Tate-LaBianca murders this $50,000 turd suckered the public out of $10M according to "Son of the Golden Turkey Award" by Michael Medved. June 11, 2006

Can't Make Myself Like It

You know, I tried, but I can't make myself see anything redeemable in any of the bad guys...lending this movie no moral complexity or statement about society almost at all. Any feeling of pity you might have for the mental illness, mental deficiency, psychological problems, or disability of all the characters is completely shot when they rape several women in drawn out, annoying, and uncomfortable rape scenes.
I'm a fan of horror movies, and a huge consumer of B-movies in general. Rape scenes in which the women seem to like it cross the line into unwatchable for me.
I'd have to reccomend you watch Hard Rock Zombies instead. January 8, 2006

Life Imitates Art

This movie is a classic example of "Life Imitates Art". Many a bike club was built on the premise of this and many other 60's scooter tramp flicks like this one. Own a piece of American counter-culture and add this jem to your library! January 24, 2004
