Mad Foxes

This is one of the absolute truly best worst films ever made. Miss it at your peril if you are a fan of excellent excrement celluloid. I mean, a Swiss/German biker wrecksploitation film with the worst dubbing, acting, soundtrack, 'plot'...hell, worst EVERYTHING KNOWN TO MAN...what's NOT to like? Go to www.filmthreat.com and see my article on it, "Hello Bastards! Here's A Little Present For YA!" to experience its true worthless splendor blow by blow.

Enjoy.

"Sure, everybody knows their hideout." - gas station attendant to angry racecar driver looking to get directions to the Mad Foxes den to kill the lot of 'em!

Hal Walters (Jose Gras) is a garishly dressed lothario playboy, who cruises the streets and nightclubs in a loud, vulgar looking car. One night he runs afoul of Neo Nazi bikers, who wear codpieces and aviator goggles to go with their leather, and his squeeze is defiled. This means total war, and Hal vows revenge on the degenerates, who vow counter revenge, and it all gets waaay hilarious.

Mad Foxes really has to be seen to be believed. A hilariously bad film, that's completely ridiculous, with awful dubbing, laughable sex scenes (complete with misty camera) and shoddily choreographed fights, it should have any lover of tacky Eurotrash exploitation on the floor, with howls of laughter.

One of my favorite bad films of all time, it's completely craptastic and is probably only topped by either Raw Force or Gymkata in terms of sheer OTT random nuttiness.

Well recommended for any lover of bad cinema, it's the perfect beer or whatevs flick and should be sought out immediately by any right thinking person, as it's a nigh on masterpiece (or craptasterpiece if you like) of awesome cheese cinema.

If I can ever cite an achievement in life, it's that I saw this film. Viva Espana!

In Denmark this gory and sick mutant was called "The Bikers And The Disco Kid"!?! It should give you a clue of what kind of trash we're dealing with here. After showing off his flashy fast car the "hero" gets beaten up and his girl is brutally raped by a moronic biker gang. He then contacts his kung fu buddies for help and they beat up the bikers and cut off the leader's penis (!) for revenge. The bikers then come back and gun down the kung fu guys...and so on. The dubbing is properly the worst ever and the film is drenched in blood, swastikas, disco, heavy metal, small bikes, sex and bad acting. The spirit of Herschell Gordon Lewis lives on, so get a copy of this obscure anti-masterpiece! Swiss producer Erwin C. Dietrich also worked with Jess Franco, so you know you're in for a treat!

Warning: Don't watch this freakshow unless you're intoxicated, it can seriously damaged your health!!

This film has earned its cult reputation due to the fact that it's ridiculous - and as you might expect, this reputation isn't exactly unfounded. Mad Foxes is just as ridiculous as it's meant to be and then some...however, while I enjoy a good silly flick, the inconstancies and illogical nature of the film don't help it as the plot doesn't move well at all, and the film gets confusing too often, which isn't good when the plot is as simple as the one here. The plot is pretty much routine for a rape/revenge flick, and focuses on a guy and his girl who end up getting on the wrong side of a neo-Nazi biker gang. The gang beat him up and rape his girl, so he vows revenge on them...blah blah. The way that the plot moves isn't very fluent, and usually just jumps from one scene to the next; which can be irritating. There are a few good sequences in the film, and these include things such as a man being blown up on the toilet and a Nazi-style bondage session towards the end. In fitting with the rest of the film, the acting and the dialogue are both terrible; but the film is very funny on numerous occasions, and while I can't say I overly enjoyed Mad Foxes; it might appeal to those who enjoy seeing movies at their worst.

Mad Foxes (1981)

*** (out of 4)

Hal (Robert O'Neal) is out with his girlfriend when they are violently attacked by a motorcycle gang. The girl is raped but Hal seeks revenge the next night when him and his kickboxing friends attack the gang. He thinks all is over but soon the gang comes back for revenge, which results in Hal seeking revenge yet again but guess what? The motorcycle gang comes back for revenge and then Hal has to go out for revenge again.

That's a lot of revenge for one movie, isn't it? Well, that's pretty much the entire plot to MAD FOXES, which has to be considered one of the most entertaining bad movies ever made. The film has some really awful acting, an awful plot, awful direction, really bad camerawork and pretty much everything else is awful. I mean, if you wanted to play film critic then there's no way this thing would get anything other than a BOMB rating.

With that being said, the movie is so downright bad on so many levels that you really can't help but just kick back and have some fun with it. I mean, take a look at the violence in the movie. There's no question that anything was able to happen including one man getting his penis cut off and forced into his own mouth! There's non-stop violence throughout the film and most of it is downright hilarious including a shooting rampage early on. Just look at some of the actor's attempt at pulling off a death scene. Oh yeah, there's a lot of sex and nudity thrown in as well.

As you can tell, there's really nothing going on in MAD FOXES except for sleaze. The movie has nothing in it that would make you respect the filmmakers but at the same time I think they accomplished what they set out to do. This is basically a wannabe DEATH WISH but of course it's pure trash and on that level it's entertaining.
