Damnation Alley

Damnation Alley
  What is Damnation Alley? It's a postapocalyptic film about three guys who go across the desert in a suped up Recreational Vehicle. The film seems to drag in places. There is a lot of jive talk and the token black guy doesn't die. It's an adventure though and lots of fun. I enjoyed this when I watched it and the music is attuned to the time. The 1970's seemed to have a very grim view of the future and it was carried over in this movie. The score was done by Jerry Goldsmith. One of my favorite composers next to John Williams. He was doing scores for a variety of films and it showed by his talent.
