Very best movie i ever watch
Such a frustrating disappointment
Powerful
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Before watching the MST3K version, I prepared myself to watch the original trailer and uncut version on the same DVD. The movie proper is meandering concerning plot, dialogue, and especially action scenes especially when a bike race is only heard while we're seeing close-up after close-up of what seems like bored spectators. There's also a couple of drunken/stoned orgy scenes that was probably the main reason for The Hellcats existence. You see some excitement at the end but by that time you'll simply be glad when it's all over. So unless you're curious about these late '60s drive-in fare, I wouldn't recommend this movie. Just the MST3K version will do for me which I'm going to review next...
For those of you who noticed all the people from Red Zone Cuba in this horrid piece of trash movie, that is because this thing was produced and funded by none other than the talentless Tony Cardoza, who funded and 'acted' in all of Coleman Francis's horrible movies, as well. I guess this is the only way that Tony got to be an actor was to pay for the movies to get made, since he had zero talent. He probably put it in the contracts that he got to play a part in the film if he produced it. Put him together with the hideous Gus Trikonis of Sidehackers fame(thus the appearance of Ross Hagen as the main character)to make a movie, and you have a disaster of major proportions in the making. The incomprehensible, drug addled plot is only the beginning of the film's problems. The film used is grainy and watered down looking, there isn't one appealing character in the whole movie, and there are scenes that make no sense and trail off altogether. Lots of them. They make up most of the movie, actually. All one can think is that the film crew, including the director, were buying drugs from the biker gang and taking fistfuls of them before they started shooting. You can watch this thing over and over again, and all you'll get is a headache. It still won't make any more sense than the first time you watched it. At least Sidehackers had the crazed but amusing JC, and Red Zone Cuba had a so-called 'plot' that left you howling with laughter. Hell cats has neither of these things. Or much of anything else, either, except for lots and LOTS of drugs, booze, and scenes of motorcycle riding and chicks in bikinis.
I hate this biker movie!!!!! This is nothing more than just a blatant ripoff of "Easy Rider," that's for sure!!!!! The biker babes were NOT hot; these evil bikers were more of "Heck's Angels" than the "Other Place Angels;" the acting was cheesy, the story made no sense, there was no plot, there were too many continuity errors; I tell you, this has got to be THE WORST biker movie known to man!!!!!Now, why watch this when you can watch Peter Fonda in "Easy Rider;" it's as risqué as "Saturday Night Fever;" the story rocks, the babes are hotter; the "angels" really are devils, and much more!!!!! Not this film!!!!!So watch this on "Mystery Science Theater 3000" only!!!!! Same with a similar movie, "Wild Rebels!!!!!" I'm so glad this movie stinks like a dirty diaper!!!!! LOL-10/10, indeed!!!!!
The folks behind "MST3K" must love the fact that there are so many bad movies, as it gives them material for their show. "The Hellcats" is one such movie. This muddled story about a biker gang getting revenge for someone's murder is about as coherent as lava is cold. The movie's whole purpose seems to be showing off buxom women wearing tight clothes. The dance numbers are meaningless, the motorcycle-riding scenes drag on for too long, and the dialog is incomprehensible. Oh, and there's also some blonde women whose reason for existence is to wear bikinis. So, it only makes sense that Joel, Servo and Crow had a great time mocking this movie, as they did with another Ross Hagen movie ("The Sidehackers"). Dreadful.
