THE REBEL ROUSERS-1970-Strange biker
film with Bruce Dern as JJ Weston, the philosophical leader of a
weird motorcycle gang which includes Bunny (Jack Nicholson decked out
in wool hat and striped pants), the seemingly out of
place Halverson (Harry Dean Stanton) and (phony) Mexican Miguel (Robert
Dix). Weston meets his old high school buddy Paul Collier (Cameron
Mitchell) now an architect who's having problems with his pregnant
girlfriend Karen (Diane Ladd who was married to Dern at the time).
They smoke pot and talk about abortion and marriage. Eventually she's
kidnapped by the gang. Paul is beaten up and escapes but no one in
town will help him except some Mexican migrant workers. Weston and
Bunny wind up having a knife fight.
Many people who worked with Al
Adamson contributed to this Paragon Entertainment Pictures
production. It's also the only movie directed by Martin B. Cohen who
years later provided the story for and produced HUMANOIDS FROM THE
DEEP. He was the executive producer of Adamson's BLOOD FROM
DRACULA'S CASTLE the year before.
