From The Wild Angels in 1966 until its conclusion in 1972, the
cycle of outlaw motorcycle films contained forty-odd formulaic
examples. All but one were made by independent companies that
specialized in producing exploitation movies for drive-ins,
neighborhood theaters, and rundown inner city houses. Despised by
critics, but welcomed by exhibitors denied first-run films, these
cheaply and quickly produced movies were produced to appeal to
audiences of mobile youths. The films are repetitive, formulaic,
and eminently forgettable, but there is a story to tell about all
of the above, and it is one worth hearing. Hoodlum Movies is not
only about the films, its focus is on why and how these films were
made, who they were made for, and how the cycle developed through
the second half of the 1960s and came to a shuddering halt in 1972.
