Product Description:
Robert Blake "displays a superabundance of magnetism and machismo" (Cue) as a good cop on the ultimate bad bike in this "powerful" (Boxoffice) film featuring "striking action sequences" (Leonard Maltin) and a "bravura rock score" (Los Angeles Times). Set against the breathtaking visuals of Monument Valley this mesmerizing film is your ticket to open-road excitement!The only thing good-hearted motorcycle cop John Wintergreen (Blake) wants is to become a detective to wear a big Stetson smoke fancy cigars and be paid to think. So when he stumbles upon a dead body he takes on the case and proves his stuff! But as soon as he's promoted the corruption he must tolerate makes the Stetson not fit so well and the cigars not taste so good. Forced to confront his own disillusionment Wintergreen heads out on his bike the Electra Glide where he makes another shocking discovery - one that could cost him his life!SPECIAL FEATURES: James Guercio Introduction Audio Commentary by Director James Guercio Original Theatrical TrailerSystem Requirements: Running Time 113 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating: PG UPC: 027616910066 Manufacturer No: 1006865

The definition of a cult film must be that it is hard to find. And that many of your friends don't know it. Both of those are true here. In fact, there is no current Region 1 release, so I had to purchase it from amazon UK. It was worth the extra work and cost.
While the moral ambiguity in this film is timeless, it is in other ways a time capsule piece. A Neo Western that is essentially an anti-Easy Rider. Some of the acting (by the supporting cast) is, how should I say, heavy-handed, ... Read More

Here's an odd little movie with a languid pace and a very short officer who dreams of becoming a detective until he sees just how corrupt one can become when one has such power. You get a glimpse into the 1970s system vs. the common man theme here, with a detective and even regular motorcycle cops being unfair to the hippies who are just zipping along the Arizona highways, for the most part.
Tragedies ensue as Robert Blake and his hair-trigger partner try to chase down a criminal. ... Read More

The reason? IT STINKS!
It's not a crisp thriller; not an action movie; and not very interesting at all. My girlfriend happened to catch the ending on TV and told me about it. Now, if you see a dramatic ending like that it makes you wonder what events could have led up to such a turn of events. We both were very curious and I almost bought this movie. I AM REALLY GLAD I DIDN'T after I caught it on TV.
It has one heck of a beginning that really sparks your imagination as you wonder ... Read More

I had seen parts of this before, but watched the whole thing through today. I must say, as great as parts of this film are, it nevertheless disappoints on many crucial levels. The acting, (while largely cheesy) is enjoyable in a pic like this. I do enjoy Robert Blake's performance though, even though Detective Harvey is WAAAY over the top!! (the coroner guy was very good also). I definitely see a link to "Easy Rider", and indeed, both films represent a (then) new wave of modern western, even maybe ... Read More

Acquitted murderer Robert Blake plays by-the-book hardon of a motorcycle officer who dreams for big status and plain clothes as a detective. Determined and not-so-bright, Blake is perfectly believable as a half-wit over his head.
The murder plot is not so interesting, but the soundtrack, scenic shots of the American Southwest and a superb job by Blake make it all worth a look. A must for fans of 70's cinema.
