Tell me stupid Hollywood execs did not remake and bastardize the utterly classic of badassery known as Death Race 2000...

It's bad enough that they fucked up Rollerball, but now they fucked up Death Race 2000?

Can't we just take all these asshole Hollywood execs, give 'em some concrete shoes and send them to sleep with the fishes at the bottom of the Challenger Deep?

1. My mom worked for Roger Corman in the 70's...

...and she's the one who came up with the infamous twist ending to this movie--uncredited, natch.

3. looks entirely different than Death Race 2000

I'm also sad/pleased to see that it follows the rule of explaining and outlining the entire film in trailer. This way I can watch it with no suspense whatsoever. Hooray. *sigh*
