tavm This was yet another of the obscure werewolf movies I recently discovered and unlike some of those others, this one deserves that obscurity! I mean, it's just pointless blather among friends whether at a diner, the desert, or a former church where satanic rituals are performed. While there are some killings where a werewolf seems to be the one responsible some of the time, that creature is not really seen until nearly the end. I did like some of the songs playing on the soundtrack but that's it. So on that note, Werewolves on Wheels is not recommended.

trishaade If you are in the mood to watch a bunch of bikers riding around and getting up to all kind of antics, this might be your cup of tea. If you are looking for a horror movie, you'll be sadly disappointed.I think this could have been an interesting movie if it had been better done. It is a novel concept and could have gone in some unique directions. I'd love to see a remake that focused on the horror aspect. The title implies that you have biker werewolves but the monster part of the movie seems like it was put in as an aside. There is very little horror in this film and it is more implied than seen. Again, this film is more about a stereotypical biker lifestyle than a horror movie. That being said, I was quite surprised by a lot of the seemingly homoerotic scenes in the film (lots of guys holding on to one another and rolling around). I did find myself incredibly bored by the whole thing and it took me a couple of days to get through it. Watching bikers ride and act out doesn't float my boat. You don't see an actual werewolf until the movie has played over an hour and that is in the dark. And these bad bikers, who have terrorized everyone they've come in contact with run like a bunch of pansies. The ending was quite convoluted and make little sense which didn't help my overall opinion of the movie.The best parts of the movie were the soundtrack and the monk ritual. However, I don't understand how a satanic ritual resulted in someone becoming a werewolf. That was a new one. If you are a biker or a fan of the biker exploitation genre, it MIGHT be worth a watch. But then again, maybe not. If you are looking for horror, look elsewhere.

Neil Welch An evil biker gang falls out with a bunch of devil-worshipping monks. This film really doesn't deserve a more detailed synopsis than that, and it's certainly not getting one from me.There is a lot of praise for this film on IMDb, so let's consider the good points. The cinematography in this biker/werewolf movie isn't bad (the night scenes, of which there are many, are well lit), there are some decent songs on the soundtrack, and a young lady prances around attractively topless for a couple of minutes. I was 19 in 1971, when this was made, and that last element would have been a major selling point at that moment in history. I still regard it as a plus, but it doesn't count for as much as it once did in a film, if I'm honest.On the negative side, we have a negligible and very familiar story, a poor script, bad acting, and an interminable (and very boring, notwithstanding the jiggling boobies) black magic ritual.So, sorry to be a dissenting voice, but this is actually a load of old rubbish, decently filmed.

sonya90028 I rented this film on DVD recently. There's not much to it. It's a biker film from the early 70s, and there's nothing particularly special about it. The bikers here, are all stereotypical Neanderthals. They're shown hassling innocent folks in remote towns, guzzling beer, doing drugs, and indulging in constant sexual escapades.The werewolf angle, is the only thing that makes this movie different from other biker flicks. When a biker's girlfriend is cursed by monks who turn out to be devil worshipers, the biker gang soon realizes that she starts acting strange. Trouble follows, as the bikers start getting killed one by one, by what they suspect may not be a human enemy.This film is more silly than scary. The werewolf costumes look tacky, and poorly put together. The special effects are amusingly cheesy, even by B movie standards. You may roll around on the floor laughing at this movie, but it's doubtful that you'd find it the least bit frightening. Another early 70s film called The Deathmaster, was much better at combining the elements of horror, and hippies/bikers. That film is much more worth your while, than Werewolves On Wheels is.
