Trailer Synopsis Cast

Dymo, a respected man-about-town, is the charismatic gang leader. His headstrong, unpredictable lover, Carli, has a penchant for magnums and fur. This is a pair that believes if you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space. Together they take on rival gang leader Jack Hand - and the local law enforcers, Blondine Dimaggio, a cop who has seen too much, and her partner Peter Dasha, whos police badge has an axe-like impact... in his own mind! It's the quick or the dead in a city where only the fast survive. The chosen form of transport is the new breed of turbo charged 2 litre all wheel drive technowiz rocket ships from the land of the rising sun. The gangs are taking over the streets in a high performance wizardry war-on-wheels that exists between those that were and the new nitrous injected generation - it's gonna be hell on wheels!

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Put this film on as a friend said to watch it just for the scenes with Steve Bisley, from the get go though it made no sense, the opening sequence is pointless, I got two thirds through this film and lost total interest and threw it in the bin, there is only one other film that I have done this with and it was John Carpenters Ghosts of Mars.The films only redeeming feature is Steve Bisley who is basically playing the Goose from Mad Max 1, he even uses the same dialogue.In a nut shell this film is someone saying "Wow The Fast and The Furious was good, lets make our own version, but for $10,000 and with no talent or script" AVOID !

i wasn't really thrilled with this one,, i thought that it was gonna sorta b like a cheap budget version of fast and the furious like urban gritty style.. well i was wrong not enough cars or women. mainly a main character who the police are after,, he does bad things leads them on chases and such, i just feel like that the cover of the video box ripped me off, i gotta stop buying movies based on the artwork cover thats on the darn box,, i mean the movie wasn't' the most horrible thing that i ever watched there's prolly bout 100 below this one on my list, i watched the whole thing just to give it an honest review, i guess i was expecting more out of this movie, but in retrospect i shouldn't have been expecting much being low budget,

This movie is absolutely awful... bad acted, bad directed, bad edited... really bad in every aspect.Avoid it at all costs... except if you wanna laugh for a while.

In The Red (or Redlined, as the DVD is called) is a bad movie with a good heart. It tries to be The Fast and the Furious, but fails in almost every way.The movie is about drugs, not about racing, despite it's claims to the contrary. There aren't any cars worth watching in the movie, nor any good racing scenes. All of the car chases seem to be going at a leisurely 30 MPH, giving no illusion excitement or suspense.I picked it up at walmart out of their $5.88 bin, and for that price, I can't really complain. But having seen it, I wonder if I'll ever bother to watch it again.
