Raising 'Hell' at Starlight Six


For accessAtlanta
Published on: 07/29/2008

One of the few drive-in theaters left in the country, the Starlight Six is typically a good value, offering double features of new movies and concessions that are more reasonably priced than megaplex counterparts. But this week the drive-in offers an even better value with a free advance screening of the new Larry Bishop biker flick "Quentin Tarantino Presents: Hell Ride" (opening Aug. 8).

Starring iconic tough guys Dennis Hopper, David Carradine, Vinnie Jones and Michael Madsen, "Hell Ride" is a drive-in movie if ever there was one, with all the sex and violence of a typical '70s exploitation film or Spaghetti Western.

The film is the focal point of "Hell Ride Rebellion," an event that features thematically appropriate festivities preceding the screening, including a motorcycle and scooter showcase and a performance by Blast-Off Burlesque that incorporates elements of biker culture. Local '70s-style punk and garage bands Thee Crucials and the Luchagors will also perform, and Jalapeño Concessions will offer hand-dipped corndogs.

Each pass admits two and includes a triple bill with "Hellboy II" and "Wanted."
