4.0 out of 5 stars
Easy -reader, but biker movie guide, it ain't,
By bikerfish johnny (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Two Wheels on Two Reels: A History of Biker Movies (Paperback)
If you don't know, Mike Seate is a writer and editor for some of the worlds top motorcycle magazines. I bought this book on his credentials alone. He's a good story teller and I enjoyed the book, but it is not the definitive guide to biker movies. I collect bikesploitation films, and Mr. Seat doesn't mention half of them. He doesn't give much historical perspective for the films, except to say that they all fed into the biker paranoia of the 60's, and then made a conversion to biker as hero in the 80's (sort of art-imitates-life-imitates-art). If you want a thumbnail of the genre, this will provide that, but he doesn't stray much from the mainstream.
