I just cannot believe that this masterpiece in movie perfection of standard has been hidden for so long. The story line synergizes the acting and actors to deliver a profound delivery of what can be not only the individual character aspects, but also an insight into the true meaning to life.
So many people whom I work with love this movie. We have a Hot Rod to Hell fan club. We go to the site of the road filming at Wilsona Gardens each year in January for a weekend to hold an amateur radio Special Event for each anniversary of release of Hot Rods to Hell, 27 January 1967. This last January we had enough of us to show up (the 40th anniversary) to act scenes from the movie right at the original locations and film them on video. For many others and me this film has been defining our lives since we first experienced it in our early teens, so long ago. This DVD will be a source of happiness, and a treasure in your collection, for many years to come.

This movie is so unintentionally funny that you will literally scream with laughter. I mean Dana Andrews had so many outstanding roles such as in The Best Years of Our Lives and Laura it is hard to believe he ended up in this stinker. Jeanne Crane looks wonderful but spends the whole movie screaming and making faces meant to convey fear that are just hilarious. Just goes to show you how important a believable script and a good director are in making a movie. So the five star rating is given to denote a really campy cult movie that has to be seen to be appreciated.

First let me start by saying I am not a movie critic, but I am a big fan of this movie. This is a movie to enjoy just for fun !!! Filmed in only 2 week's time in the desert outside of Palmdale,Ca. this low budget "B" movie was intended to be a "Movie of the Week". Made back in 67', it was a little racy (no pun intended), for the masses. It has become a cult movie for anyone who loves cars of the late 50's~early 60's. And what makes this movie so good you ask ? Well ,how about, bad acting, so-so plot, bad editing, low budget, Kool cars & Gloria. Did I mention Kool cars & Gloria? Dukes bad-to-the-bone '58 vette still looks as good as when I first saw the movie back in 1968. I still to this day want a straight axle corvette !!! Made in a time when these "Bad Seed Teens" seem mild to today's real life gun toting teen's of today. I believe if this was made into a video game today, teens would spend less time playing video games !! It's that bad in a good way. Sit back, relax & enjoy.The Fast & Furious has nothing on "HOT RODS TO HELLS". If you don't enjoy this movie , well, you probaly won't enjoy the 60's. I wonder why they never gave Elvis a shot at Duke's part? That would have been WAY TOO KOOL !!!! SEE YA DADDY O !

I saw this movie on TV in the mid/late 60's and can't believe that they edited out the single greatest line of the entire movie! Inside the Arena Duke finally has another shot at Tina on the dance floor. The band is playing a slow, steamy number and the two of them are getting into it! Duke, in his sexiest voice possible, slowly begs Tina to "Turn on, Baby!" My friends and I went wild laughing till it absolutely hurt! Funniest line ever, never to be forgotten. Imagine my utter disappointment when this movie finally gets released on DVD and they edit the line out! Just like TNT did when they aired it a few years ago. Can't believe they need to protect our ears from the horrible druggie language of the time. Very disappointing! All of you should be able to hear it. It was GREAT! Does anyone else remember hearing those three immortal words, or are my friends who were there with me the only ones to remember the line of a lifetime?
